Agreed, doesn't have the tensioner. I received the $20 refund from RA as well. The ad listing on their site has been updated since the time I bought the kit.
Agree...
Aisin kit will be:
Good gaskets (Gates kit gaskets are not as good)
Mitsuboshi Belt - spelled correctly... (OEM supplier to Toyota)
Aisin water pump - (OEM Supplier to Mitsubishi)
Koyo pulleys - (OEM Supplier to Mitsubishi)
no Hydraulic Tensioner
Buy the OEM Hydraulic Tensioner

You are going to need to freshen any 20 year old plus vehicle if you want it to be reliable for overlanding. There were a lot more 4Runners sold in USA than Monteros and therefore parts are more readily available. Near me it s difficult to find Gen 2 Monteros even for sale, let alone a good...
Company in Illinois is going to do this with the original Bronco '66 - '77 style. Complete with new VIN. Authorized by FORD. Starting price $95K and moves up to $250K...
I read different pricing than this article...
Duty cycle, ambient temperature and how much stuff in the frig (thermal mass) all come into play. I have 2 group 31s (roughly 100 amp/hour each) and 300 watts of solar in my camper. Edgestar 45 (same as Whitner) and a few LED lights, heater fan occasionally are the main power consumers. You...
Roughly a 60 amp/hour battery... Discharge time seems about right. Frig draw is approximately 4.5 amps per hour (DC) while the compressor is running. That would be 13.3 hours until dead dead.
Having owned (3 year lease) a 1997 CR-V, 2000 CR-V, 2003 Element, 2006 CR-V, 2009 CR-V I can't imagine doing any off-roading in any of these. Actually the 2009 was probably the worst vehicle I've ever owned for snow traction (including other 2wd cars) - darned scary.
No need to compare to Jeep. FCA builds 20,000 Wranglers a month. The sweet spot of Monteros Gen 2.5 (1998 thru 2000) there were 30,813 imported to USA in those 3 years total. That was nearly 20 years ago. Statistically, there really are not more than 3,000 of those remaining road worthy.
I've recently had a pretty rough experience with MitsubishiPartsWarehouse. Ordered a bunch of things for my Gen 3, they shipped them but didn't put the correct shipping label on the box (core competency for a mail order company I'd think) so the shipment got stuck at the post office. Took me...
yea, the "new" 3.0l bolt is shorter... I know for the same reason. I had to pull the belt off again to change the key. I think I have several extras if you can't come up with one. 5mm wide x 9mm deep 21mm long.
