    Let's say you sold your 1990 Montero for $1000

    Timing belt, tensioner, water pump - I think you said these were already done thou, so... Shocks, springs, check and replace if needed tie rod ends, ball joints, bushings, then wheel alignment, fluids change, see how much $ is left over after that.

    Potentially buying a 1996 Trooper.. what to look for?

    A $3K transmission bill would send a truck like this to the scrap yard pretty quick.

    Espar Battery Setup

    You kinda answered your own question. You will need to dump 23ah per day back in to keep your battery 100% charged. The items missing are expected sun hours, and if you plan to be 100% off the grid every day or will you "recharge" during the week for weekend camping... Weekend warrior you will...

    So is the gen III really that good

    13 mpg is bad, is that city or highway driving? I see generally between 17 and 19 highway which is normal for these and yes it will be more challenging to find a good one today as when I bought mine 5 years ago with 75K on the clock. Not many low mileage trucks available now. 120K to 180K...

    So is the gen III really that good

    Interesting list. Only thing on it that I have experienced is sagging rear springs, and I've had mine over 5 years. Easily fixed for $200 from OME. Not uncommon with any vehicle with a dozen or more years on it. For sure not the dealer support/locations as Toyota but a similar mileage LC...

    Rocky Road Outfitters - How long did you wait for your shipment?

    You will never get more lift in the front than cranking (or indexing) the torsion bars. It is a limit of the geometry of the suspension. You may get more load carrying capacity at a given torsion bar height setting and potentially a better ride.
