Nice, seems stout!

In your case, think of what you're doing as 2 separate jobs. 1--Front of the engine includes: timing belt/tensioner, water pump, front cam seals(2), crank seal, crank bolt/washer 2--Top of the engine includes: valve cover gaskets, spark plugs/wires, spark plug tube grommets(6), rear cam...

Looking good! I'd like to see some close up shots of your front and rear bumpers too, if you have a chance.

Ok, thanks Dont_tread... Parts updated, ty snare, nwoods, SlimPickins

Welcome back Saint! I always enjoy following your builds. This one looks like it's shaping up to be another great one!

I'll try to make it

Don't-tread, would you mind posting the part numbers you found that don't match so I can update the thread if need be. Also, which link was broken? I want to fix that, too. Thanks

My pleasure Liberty, glad you found the writeup useful!

I would say the job pretty much requires you to remove the pump housing even if you're not replacing it. The pump housing is sandwiched between the water pump and the engine block, however some of the bolts that attach the pump housing to the block are "through bolts" that will be loosened when...

jms, while you're replacing the cam seals, if you haven't already, I'd suggest you replace your front crank seal, as well.

Nice write up Toasty!

Like nckwltn said, do not use the pulley holder against the frame to loosen the crank bolt with a bump start. Put a socket on the bolt, and wedge your breaker bar against the frame. I'd also pull the plug wires off of the coil packs/coil plug wire so the engine doesn't accidentally start...

Senor Carey, since you have both vehicles, I'd be interested to know your opinion on how they compare generally.

Great work Eurosonic! I checked out your stellarbuilt IG, you've been doing some awesome stuff, man!

92-93 Gen 2 Monteros came in four trim levels: base, RS, LS and SR. Only base and RS could come with manual. In 94, the Montero lineup lost the base and RS trim levels. The manual Gen 2s are pretty rare here in the states. I'd say check it out!

There is a lock in the shifter mechanism which releases in Park only when the brake pedal is depressed. There is a cable that runs between the brake pedal and the shifter which controls the actuation of the lock. In order to access the locking mechanism on the shifter end of the cable, you'd...

This is just phenomenal! Awesome idea, awesome execution, awesome look! BTW, I a have a set of 16 hole wheels, too. If you don't mind, what shop did you use to widen the center bores?
