I believe with the engine off, the front differential CAD engages being there is no vacuum, and therefore the differential acts like it is in 4wd and the driveshaft would spin. The transfer case however would remain disengaged (2wd mode

just say NO to stick-on weights

I have this, works great. Around $12.50 shipped Prime https://www.amazon.com/1173-Pocket-Socket-Tool-Pouch/dp/B000KKUTCY/

sounds like a CV joint

I doubt the dealership would be of any specific help. These trucks have not been sold new here in 12 years (2006 MY). Many Mits dealerships went out of business in 2008/2009 and all the guys working in the new replacement dealerships now are new (for the most part). We have 3 in the metro...

I keep forgetting, are stock Gen 3 Montero wheels hub centric? (I doubt your aftermarket wheels are hub centric). I'm also in the bushing bandcamp. I've replaced several of them in my '05.

TIP TIG is pretty cool! Thanks for sharing that, I had no idea that TIG filler wire could be power fed. I just have a 200 amp AC/DC unit and am not a pro.

I don't know about windows. For welding, if you are planning on 0.080" or 0.050" thickness tubing, Mig/Spool would be extremely challenging. Tig on 0.050 would be somewhat challenging unless you are an experienced welder. One of the reasons Vagabond (and others) use 0.125" material is because...

I own this one now: https://www.expeditionportal.com/forum/threads/jeffs-cargo-conversion.73403/

but my go too are Costco's Kirkland Merino Hiking Socks. me too

It is interesting that OME 2995 are not Montero specific. Are they supposed to be even a heavier load rating than OME 2918 (heavy duty rear) springs?

I have the Eco worthy 20 amp mppt as well on 2x 125w panels. Works fantastic.

Blue Sea ACR & National Luna Portable Power Pack - 2 very different products The ACR can be replicated with an old style Ford starter relay, and that NL item - wow

+1 on the jumper pack, resides in the back of my Gen 2, somebody at work is always leaving their lights on. Definitely a very handy gizmo. I have a Suaoki, bought it on Amazon a couple years ago.

I have a Group 31 Odyssey AGM in my Gen 1, a Group 27 Odyssey AGM in my Gen 2 and a Group 24 Autozone AGM in my Gen 3. The Gen 3 battery was an emergency purchase, but seems to be working fine. When we truck camp with the Edgestar fridge, I strap an Odyssey PC1200 AGM in a battery box in the...

What about the 1 amp/hour test? Is there any validity to that? Say connect a 1 amp load (ie: I have an LED lamp that draws 1 amp nearly exact) and time that discharge for 240 minutes (4 hours) and scale that voltage change to where approximately a battery would "rate" compared to new? For...

Being there are a lot of battery aficionados in this thread, How is capacity (AKA the Group 31 100+ amp hour rating) measured? Is it from full charge ~12.8VDC down to 10.5 VDC? or something else? Where is the 50% point 12.24 VDC or 11.64 VDC? A couple of charts for pondering: AGM State of...

grab ASA from Mitsubishilinks.com, should be able to find the part number of that sensor in the part number database program.

so I was right

unclear to me, did you remove the diff cover? I've always found it easier to pry/push the axle out from inside the diff. You might also be able to remove the keeper clip from inside there. Could be that the clip is damaged and partially out of the groove inside the diff, really giving you...
