I had a TuffStuff on my old '92 for a couple years. Great tent, but decided a trailer would be better for us. Reasonably priced, My opinion is to get one with an enclosed lower, and basically they are all made in China, so find the best deal on one and go with it..

My take on it is that all the capacitors in the factory head unit are beyond their life at 23 years old and so many heat / cool cycles. Speakers are also probably dry as biscuits, perhaps even disintegrated. I put a Kenwood head unit in my '93 and Alpine speakers. I think the head unit was...

believe it or not, SUVs get driven more than cars according to NHTSA. They do projections on mileage driven over years and say that an "average" 2003 (15 years old) will have 188K on it and an "average" 2005 (13 years old) will have 166K on it. There were only 18K MY 2003 and newer Monteros...

I was shocked at your $1300 price point actually, and personally didn't expect you (OP) to find much more than a barely running heep. Good luck with your hunt, and really probably need to bump that price search criteria to $2500 + as a starting point.

I did the Montero Sport 4.90 gear swap into a '95 SR rear locker axle and then swapped the entire MS front axle + Starion LSD into my old '92 RS (not SR). Great upgrade. I've been lightly searching for a '98 thru '00 for a couple years, have not found the right truck / right time / right price...

Each year SR (or top level '98 and after being SR name was dropped) is a slight unicorn but mostly the same between 1992 and 2000. '92 & '93 SR - 3.0l SOHC, OBD1, V4AW2 transmission (aka KM148 aka A44D, aka AW372L), 4.88 gears 9" ring gear - maybe an air locker in some. '94 & '95 SR - 3.5l...

Hi Dave, Down side of the '97 vs a '96 is the '97 will have 4.272 gearing vs 4.63 in the '96. OBD2 is nice, the '97 will have a SOHC 3.5l vs a DOHC 3.5l in the '96 - maybe 15 less HP on paper in the '97, people say the butt dyno is more than that. General maintenance is always an issue in a...

Good idea on the service. Yes, replace all the seals, Cams & crank. If they start to leak tomorrow or next week - it is like doing another timing belt job for labor. People seem to favor OEM seals, it is what I have used as well. Not sure about aftermarket. Cost between the options is...

have not quite seen them for $33, but Amazon is $99 shipped

Refinement based on better information. In general there are around 14% of the total vehicles in the country for sale on any given day (seams high - but data point is from NADA) Most of these 14% are less than 3 model years old (41%). By the time a vehicle model reaches 21 years after sold...

Studies from NHTSA suggest that by the time a light truck (I think this would be the correct Montero classification) reaches 22 years old there are only 20% of those sold remaining on the road. So if we consider 1995 to 1997 all in this ballpark there are likely less than 7,500 of the most...

I go with a collection of vintage (pre 1968) Revere Ware copper bottom stainless steel pots and pans custom sourced and size selected for our needs

I used the same batteries the OP listed in the first post. 4S40P. Here are some tips as well https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m04CXhoQ2jU&t=307s a couple options for charge controllers: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01N6O2ZR4/ this one is advertised as an MPPT - its not, but it is a...

Anything added or subtracted from the vehicle as delivered by the OEM changes the human survivability risk factor being it was not included in the OEM crash test.

A RHD Deli I can understand. There are windows on the LH side of that vehicle. An RV thou? Can't get a grip, your LH side is completely blocked and your mirrors are really small. RV's suck to begin with for traffic merging and general visibility rearward. now move the driver to the right...

I have them (KYB G-a-J) on '88 and '93 - perfectly fine. Never put them in a Gen 3 thou, harsh as heck in these.

Wow, RHD - visibility would be shockingly compromised in a LHD country.

So you bought this? I saw it on FB for sale in the past weeks
