That's OK I'll restrain myself. Sometimes we read things different than what the poster (me) had in mine. Mr. BushPig, There are no smog pumps or other plumbing like in the old days. The difference is mostly in the electronics and maintenance schedules. Did you know, as an example, California...

Emissions are put on vehicles for a purpose. No matter what state. That purpose is to not pollute. If you were to remove a smog device you would be looking at a red light, all the time, telling you something not right (CEL). By the way I am not one of those tree hugger, but I do my best to keep...

Get a 1993 or 1994 SR. It has what you are looking for less the heated seats.

It a rubber hose that run from the compressor to the third member. In all the years I've been messing with these trucks I've never seen a bad hose. I'm not saying they don't go bad, just never seen one. If it turns on as often as you say you have a leak somewhere, most likely the locker itself...

Gen 2.5's and lower only have one cat. If it' a California truck and running good why would you want to screw with the emissions? There is very little difference between non California than the rest.

I've never heard of a locker being in the transfer case. Is this new technology?

On the early models A torque-sensing limited-slip rear differential is standard on the Limited and optional on the Montero XLS. No lockers.

You need to let us know where this vehicle is located. The above mention do live in the Bay Area, but we are also many miles apart.

No, but if the truck has sat for number of years it may have a problem. There is such a truck here on the ranch, that's why I bought one.

I bought one so there is one left. It's an OME part, per the add. If it's not I'll send it back.

If you need a pump, buy it before it's to late. If it's still there this afternoon I'll buy it.

I run Falkien Rocky Mountain's on my truck and have on the other Montero's I've own. They are by far the quietest truck tire I've ever run and are great off road. I have not heard anyone complain about noise except for the post above. Here is one of the reviews...

n Welcome to the forum and that's a nice looking truck you have. Tell us about it and your updates in another post. They are Not sold here in the USA.

It was a fun day. We had 30 students this time, so it made it a little easer. Glad you had a good time and learn a few things.

6 volts or did you mean 6 bolts? If it is the same as the Montero I have several free ones if you need one.

Have a look at your front wheels. You will see a small round object with 6 or so bolts, that is a hub with groves for the splines located on the axles. It is not a grease cup even though it has grease in it. I'm sure his is set up the same way as the Gen 2's.

Pull the hub off and see if the splines are OK and the hub is not striped. You don't have to raise the wheel off the ground to do it. I've never seen one striped, but anything goes with off road trucks.

Sounds like a ground or key switch problem. Start by removing the cables from the battery and cleaning them. Make sure they are nice and shiney, both the cable ends and the battery terminals. If that does not fix the problem order a switch. Go to Rockauto.com to order one. Look under...

No of course not, but your statement "There are some fiberglass, crappier knockoffs on ebay.... good luck with those though" is not fair to those selling them? If a person with unknown knowledge said don't use Scott Brown for a guide or his pictures are crap, that would be wrong, right? I would...
