    Keyless Entry, Multiple Transmitters

    I've got two fobs programmed to my 99. Both work equally well

    Shifting into 4-Low, ABS light came on.

    I would add a switch to the fuse. Seems like the easiest way to interrupt the circuit. Interesting thought about the solder joint, but it makes sense. Most of the sensors work from a voltage differential, where as the more resistance, and greater the voltage differential. It should be a very...

    Shifting into 4-Low, ABS light came on.

    it does seem to disable for me sometimes but not always... I find that I prefer it to be disabled when in 4 low anyway.... when creeping down something steep with some loose soil, with ABS on, it feels like there is less braking power.... I'd rather have the wheels lock up and dig in. I've been...

    Mounting a 50" led lightbar to a Gen 2 Monty?

    You could use a piece of square aluminium tube as a cross bar. Metal supply ships should have a few remnant pieces.

    Mounting a 50" led lightbar to a Gen 2 Monty?

    Garvin makes nice gutter mounts. Because of the slope in the roof, you can probably get away with 5 rise inch near the windshield. I used the gutter mounts for a custom roof rack install... The 7 inch rise are necessary near the rear because there is more roof above the rain gutter.

    It takes time to clean out the old grease and swap the boots.... But that's about it..... Assuming they aren't already damaged due to torn boot. I don't think I've read about anyone breaking an OEM axle.... Its the aftermarket ones that break.

    The snap ring is pretty small and likely wouldn't cause much if any resistance going through the teeth of the gears. Perhaps drop a magnet on a strong line into diff and hope you catch the broken ring? Or put a magnet into the diff so it'll catch particles?

    Gen 3, horn wouldn't stop going off - With Fix!

    Disconnected the battery and tried to start the car. Also, the first step is to disconnect the wires that could cause the airbag to go off. There aren't any actual sensors in the steering wheel to make the airbag go off.... Those sensors are other places in the car. Wouldn't hurt to do as...

    Gen 3, horn wouldn't stop going off - With Fix!

    you bet... bump it up to the top, it's a pretty quick fix. The most challenging part is getting the 8mm bolts and washers back onto studs that hold the airbag and horn assembly together. I used a glue stick on the washer to stick the washer to the nut. The nut was put into a 8mm deep socket...

    Gen 3, horn wouldn't stop going off - With Fix!

    the Gen 3's have a common issue. When it gets cold, the horn will activate. Well, this happened to me (or rather my wife) while I was on a business trip to NYC. She calls me at 4 in the morning LA time and I can hear the horn on the car just blaring. So I proceed to walk her through how to...

    Valve seal replacement

    The job isn't hard as much as it is time consuming, and frustrating at times. I would suggest having a few extra keepers on hand. They are cheap. Is also a good time to replace hydraulic lash adjusters. check out this video I made when I did my seals almost 3 years back.

    Gen 2 or 2.5 MPG?

    Cautionary Tale 2002 Montero Limited HBB

    I was at the pick a parts place in the last year, and someone was pulling the brake booster from an 02.... He said that it was a common issue, and an easy way to tell if the booster failed was if the damage to the car was in the front (indicating the brakes went out)
