    What about those fusible links on the Gen1?

    I replaced mine in the '88 with a buzz holder and new fusible link wire. NAPA sells (or sold - it was several years ago) the link wire in various sizes. Just make sure you use the same diameter and length. Its specified in the FSM if I recall correctly.

    Shocks for a Gen1 SWB?

    Bilsteins on my Gen 3 were a HUGE improvement over KYB. Its the only one of my trucks that I can do a shock to shock comparison. Check out B6 4600 24-013369 for your Gen 1.

    There is a part number for the Gen 1 Bil 4600 front shocks. I know I have it written somewhere.

    Tires... I am due for set. What are you rockin' on your Gen 3 Monty?

    For sure would have rubbed like 7734 on my '05 without a lift, and probably would also with my current OME mediums.

    Tires... I am due for set. What are you rockin' on your Gen 3 Monty?

    I had BFG TA A/T KO 235/85R16 on my gen 3 for 35K miles. Certainly the worst size tire for this truck. Made it handle terrible. I can't believe anybody would recommend this size tire for this vehicle.

    Custom build pop-up camper

    For sure labor hours at GFC are not free, so OP says 150 hours... Shop rate $60/ hr (that would be cheap), that is $9k in labor. I am sure that GFC has a lot less hours into it.

    Tires... I am due for set. What are you rockin' on your Gen 3 Monty?

    I don't think these will fit without rubbing a lot on stock wheels and no lift. Maybe? I run 285/75R16 on mine with OME medium springs and still get a little rub occasionally. I understand that the 255 is narrower, but it is slightly taller than a 285. YMMV.

    Tires... I am due for set. What are you rockin' on your Gen 3 Monty?

    Nothing bigger than 265/75R16 (or 265/75R17) without a lift. I am a fan of BFG A/T KO2. Not sure how the Falkins are with the re-design, but I ran the early model of these tires (Wildpeak A/T) and they were very loud on the Gen 3 chassis.

    iPad Mount for Gen3 Montero

    I have an android double din (Joying JY-UO135N4G ) in the radio spot with the climate control moved down to where the CD Changer was. When that doesn't serve its purpose for nav, I also have a RAM mount for a 8" tablet. But I like your idea.
