So, my Monty (95 SR 3.5) started doing something new yesterday. As I was headed to school, when I would be coming to a stop at lights, the RPM's would drop really low to the point that I thought it was going to stall, I would tap the gas, and they would shoot right back up to normal. When I left...

Just wanted to update you guys on this, I did the oil change, and this time I tried the Mobil1 filter, and I think that did it, there is still a little clicking, but it's not even close to what it was before, and from what someone once told me, these engines do have a little tick to em anyways...

Sweet, I've been thinking about doing sliders, though I don't know if I'll really need them, I think they'd be nice to have just in case. How long did it take to put the one side on? Sent from my iPhone

That's awesome :)

Thanks man :), that bumper is pretty heavy, I'm gonna have to crank my torsion bars some more to even it out again. I saw in your sig that you have the OME torsion bars, are they thicker than stock do you know? I know our years are different, but I was just curious, thanks.

Took the Monty out for a romp with my new bumper installed this past Saturday, here are a few shots, there are more in my build thread. This was a 45 degree incline...in case you're wondering

The next day, I cleaned up my bumper real good and set about painting it. I had a light patina of rust from the previous days' rain, and would've been worse if I hadn't doused it a couple of times with WD40, so I sanded it down a bit first to clean it up. After a quick primer coat all over, I...

A few more.... And yes, I caught this desert fox taking a dump ;) lol

Here are the rest of my pics from Calico. We had an eventful day, including me asking one of our group to shut my truck off, and for some reason it started to roll down the hill, so I had to chase after it to stop it...that was interesting...and then on the way out, I nicked the side of a sharp...

Thanks guys, here are a couple of action shots I got with my phone, I took a bunch more with my camera, but only these two with my phone. This was at Calico, I'll post up more pics and the tale of the ride when I get home later, or mañana. Sent from my iPhone

All done boys!!! Minus the paint anyways, I'm gonna get to that hopefully by Sunday afternoon/evening, I sprayed it down with some WD40, as I'm gonna take it out tomorrow, (and we might get some pretty heavy weather through here tomorrow, I'm hoping it'll miss the spot where we're headed..., I...

I had thought about that after seeing it with the bumper off and again after looking at the pics, but I haven't come up with a solution yet, I was waiting to get the finished product home, and see what might be done, or see if anything even needs to be done, I'm going to be removing the control...

Once it's all said and done, it's gonna be about $900 for this bumper. Though he quoted me a little cheaper at the start, and he kept to that quote, I guess it's costing him a little more than he anticipated. But he's being good enough to charge me what he originally quoted, he said that this...

My fab shop, just sent me these pictures, he said it'll be done either late today, or sometime tomorrow. All that is missing is a few pieces on the sides and the bull bars on top. What do you guys think thus far? Oh, and I spoke to him about the bolts, and he said that stock bumpers...

In the photo's it's a little deceiving and looks as if there are only 2 bolts attaching those plates to the frame rails, but in reality, there are 5. Two going in from each side, and one going up from the bottom. So hopefully that will be enough, do you think? It's my first winch bumper, so I'm...

I passed by the shop this morning to get an update, and they had some more work done, they said that the whole thing should be done in a day or two, so I'm hoping by tomorrow night, Thursday the latest. I snapped a couple of shots He said he was going to cut the rest of the pieces today...

Glad you found em, Im surprised they said they were obsolete, last year I needed to replace one of mine, and I called the dealer and they ordered one for me no problem (though they gave me the wrong one of the pair, I was still able to make it work, I didn't feel like making the 1hr round trip...

:iagree: Nice looking ride man, welcome to the Mitsubishi fold :)

This is awesome, I know of a scrap metal place down here local in Orange County, I might hit them up and see how much they would charge to help with a project like this. I asked the fab place that's doing my bumper how much they'd charge to make it for me, and they said somewhere around...

I don't know about engines, but theres been a few times that I've needed some odd's and ends for my Monty, and have looked on Ebay, I have rarely found the part I was looking for listed, but what I usually did was found a seller that looked to be a wrecker and was selling a few different parts...
