    Thanks. Yes..those seals and gaskets are in the pic above. I knew I forgot something...need to order the Plenum gaskets from Mitsu. Most of the other parts are coming from RockAuto which should all arrive this Friday. My build is going to be mild...not looking to go extreme like some others...

    Orange sticker was peeled off by the previous owner at some point...you can see the left over sticky residue on the bezel cover. Definitely has a locker as the button and rear locker pump are there.

    The Montero arrived on Thursday 5/18 around 5:30pm but I only had time check it in. My dad went to the ER earlier that day and right after the auto transport called me on their ETA on their arrival. I had the truck dropped off at my best friends shop which is about 30 mins away from where I...

    There was a delay on getting my Montero picked up...I guess if its not near or in a fairly populated city, it may take some time. The dealer that I bought my Montero is 3 hours away from Tacoma, WA and Spokane, WA. I finally got a confirmation on Friday evening that the transporter was going to...

    Anyone tried a CRP / Continental timing belt kit on their Montero?

    I have never used Continental belts...even though there are mixed reviews on them, a couple of buddies of mine years ago used them on their 4G63's and they stretched which was a common issue with them, which is enough for me that I never used their belts on my personal vehicles. I have either...
