    Glad to see Expo is still thriving

    Of late, work and family have kept me from Mitsubishi stuff, even that within my yard. I'm cutting up and disposing of excess things if anyone wants to visit Montero Ranch for the last bits. My side hustle has been done for some time with exceptions of a few favors. The last favors to me will...

    Rims and Tires for Montero / Max Crowd

    Set of four Helo 750 rims with Firestone Destination MT tires. Rims are 16x10 and the centers milled to clear the Mitsubishi 4wd front hub. Tires are 315/75-16, or about 35" diameter. Nice fitment on the Gen 2 Max and Gen 1 Montero. Some may recognize Pearl and Scar, today's models. For the Max...

    Got a Gen 1 LWB, what now?

    I still play tapes I recorded in the early 80s. The most time durable tapes have been the TDK D-series. First six tapes I recorded include BÖC and Eagles. All the factory label tapes usually get tossed when they act up.

    Got a Gen 1 LWB, what now?

    Some of those jams are not 80s! However, any mixture that contains Primus and Jimi is good with me.

    BFG 33x12.5 VS 33x10.5 with stock rims

    On Gen 2 rims, you're only at 7 inches wide. Some tire shops would not mount the 12.5s on a rim deemed too narrow by tire manufacturers.

    Not a Noob, but seek information on Sunrader trailers

    I am seeking information about the depicted Sunrader Trailer. I have an ag-trailer frame that I'm building to haul behind my Mighty Max. The ag-trailer is similar in layout to a Bantum M100, but was used for a water pump or air compressor, and is now equipped with 38" Toyos. From the pictures...

    Monteros on craigslist

    What shocks me, a SoCal transplant, is how much pot culture there is in the Chico area and north. Yes, I have to put this in, often I'm asked about being 215 friendly. Nope, not me.

    What did you do to your Mitsubishi today?

    Has been some time since I checked in, but I've been gathering parts for Pearl. The service body is sitting on the chassis now, and I've picked up some 35" tires and bling for her.

    Trailer towing advice

    The mere thought of pulling horses with a Montero should just even give pause to the thought, make go go 'duuuuuh', and end with dismissal of the idea.

    Gearing for Monteros - List

    Also for the 4-cyl non-US models, there was a 5.86 gears. I should have purchased the set on The Wire a few years ago.

    Post Your Montero SPORT Pics!

    I finally can contribute to this thread. My Sport will be largely supporting the rebuild and repurpose of my 88 Mighty Max. I'm going to scavenge all the running gear front the front and transform the Max to 2-piston calipers, large rotors, and the later CVs. The rear axle supply the matching...

    1989 Short Wheel Base (2dr) Montero Sport 2.6L 5Spd

    Toasty, tried on Mighty Max to no avail...didn't want to destroy the vintage Conferr lift shackles. Top too wide, bottom too narrow. There is a company in the UK that makes a 50mm (2" shackle) for the new Triton that will likely work on the Mighty Max / D50 / Montero / Raider platforms. Russell

    What did you do to your Mitsubishi today?

    It's been some time since I contributed to this thread. In order, my wife decided to keep her 89 LS Montero and get it going. We've have it for almost 10 years and it's been moved around NorCal, then around our yard. Rich Eichenburg sold us a set of lock cylinders and keys to replace the set on...
