Any updates to the project? Sent from my LGLS992 using Tapatalk

Rubber hoses don't last forever and are inexpensive to replace. Well worth the effort of doing while you are there.

Diy brake caliper replacement guide! This one will be short and sweet. Parts needed: calipers, pads, brake lines, brake clean, brake fluid (DOT 4). Tools needed: 14mm and 17mm socket, wrench, breaker bar, torque wrench, hammer, lug nut socket (may vary pending on your wheels), 8mm open ended...

This is a quick jack system. If you are using this for your Montero, pick up the height extender parts. https://www.quickjack.com/car-lift-systems/bl-5000slx-portable-car-lift.html Sent from my LGLS992 using Tapatalk

Quick diy guide time! Coolant tee replacement (tees only if you have a rear hvac unit, otherwise you may have a straight coupler or nothing at all). Tools needed: pliers, screw driver (or suitable tool for worm gears), large container to catch coolant, funnel. Parts needed: 2 or 3 gallons of...

Job is finished and it's time to wash the car from the last adventure. Diy guide coming up later tonight (In a few days ad I've been busy).

Started working on the car today. Aluminum tees have been installed in the front. Brake project is coming along. Working casually and it's fairly straight forward. I forgot how much of a pain it is to crack off the brake line from the chassis hard lines. I have a set of forged mono block...

Brakenetic rotors. They take blanks, apply a coat and mill several different patterns in them. Figure as long as there aren't any cross drilled holes, they should last. Sent from my LGLS992 using Tapatalk

Parts arrived for this weekend's project. New aluminum coolant fittings and brake rotors. The rotors are interesting and use a vane pattern I've not seen before. Will be investigating this further and well report back on the rotor and performance.

Just returned from a trip early due to trail damage that could have easily been avoided with skid plates. Suffice to say, the priority of these had been bumped up. Soon as they are available, will pick up the front and mid sections from you. Sent from my LGLS992 using Tapatalk

So the wife and I went to Wyoming to explore the Medicine Bow National Forest this weekend. We're scouting campsites for this year's total solar eclipse coming up in August, and this is a great excuse to explore an area that is new to us. The trip was very scenic, however the national forest...

May plan a trip down in the next month or so. Will send a pm once plans solidify. Sent from my LGLS992 using Tapatalk

Went exploring in Wyoming the other day. Snagged a few good pictures.

I gotta get some skid plates, and if be keen on a set if offered. Sent from my LGLS992 using Tapatalk

Have been using Ko2's for a while now. Pleased overall with the quality and road manners of the tire, but don't have much to compare to honestly. Wheel is a 16x8 et 0 made by Level 8, Mk6. Tires are 265-75 R16 Bf-g K02s with the E load rating. I wouldn't recommend this load rating unless you...

Hang in there! Walk away and come at it with a fresh set of eyes another day.

Will cover this topic briefly at the moment, but may touch upon this in more detail in the future. The adhesive foam is called Noico Liner, and I picked some rolls of this up from Ebay. Its essentially a light weight closed cell foam product with a very strong adhesive backing. The material...

I honestly can't recall exactly. Ordered the tires and wheels from Discount Tire Direct, and the invoice noted the vote side as follows: 67.10 for both front and rear. The lugs are the typical conical narrow body spline type used in most aftermarket wheel packages. Just make sure you order...

Thanks! It was a bit of work, but they are really solid and I'm quire pleased with the project! The rear support structure is really strong (overkill) and it should provide many years of trouble free use.
