Sorry it took longer than expected. I also cannot say these are exact as I would need to remove a few things to get the measuring tape along the steering rack. It looked like ~58" between the tie rod joint centers, and ~60" in overall length. I may be able to get more exact measurements later.

I may be able to check at lunch if I remember

Good to hear that it is running again.

Be sure to grab the FSM from my link below. Should find it helpful for a lot of things.

I've also yet to see a stock 4-Runner mount 33" tires or be capable of this:

Put some All Terrain Tires on the Gen 3 and go drive it. Only upgrade when you find something where it does not meet the challenge. I have stock ride height and 32" Toyo ATs. I will point mine towards any path that the Rubicons go, even ones where others turn back. I have never once gotten...

Thanks. I had used Fred Beans Parts a while ago, but they are gone. Now I usually split between RockAuto and wherever I can find the right OEM part. The dealerships around me are not the best source for parts, if they even know what I am asking.

Who have you been using as your source of original Mitsubishi parts? Most of my sources have started to go away in the last 5 years.

ALso check for correct vacuum line placement and leaks. This caused poor performance in my 01 until the engine would warm up

Yep. Not for the faint of heart. Make sure you put a new o-ring on the metal pipe that enters the back of the water pump housing. It will eventually leak and you will have to take the whole intake off again to reach it.

I ordered the DNJ Intake Manifold/Plenum gasket kit. They have worked great on my 05. Some people have reported issues with the Fel-Pro valve cover gaskets, but I cannot confirm this.

It was a known issue with the cir-clips. Mitsubishi issued a TSB for this and sent a parts package to dealers for installation. It was never an official recall, so many trucks did not have it done or were not affected. The biggest tell is to see a slight leak of fluid from where either axle...

The latest reports are that Mitsubishi has been given responsibility for the platform design of the truck that will be used in the Renault-Nissan group. This would make the next L200/Triton model the base for the Nissan Navara and possibly Frontier. I think that the Triton platform has proven...

I think he has been copy and pasting Reddit posts here

Good to hear that it is working normally again. I'm not sure what would cause that on a cable shift design.

You can get the FSM in my link below. It is probably the sensor as I just replaced mine as well. You can buy sensors from Rock Auto, eBay or OEM. I bought a set from eBay to replace the bank 1 sensor 1 issue. Working now with no issues for a few weeks. Make sure to clear the code with a...

The Gen 3 has a 5,000lb tow rating. I have routinely towed 3,000 lbs with mine on my 3500lb rated trailer. It will used 4th gear more to get up hills, but never let me down. The IRS will sag more than a solid axle over time, but this can be remedied easily with a set of helper air springs. I...

Some may have seen this before, but it is very interesting to watch. Factory tour of current production Gen-4 Pajero and D5 Delica vehicles. At 4:30, you can see the Pajero frame being welded into the monocoque. When it shows a close up at 4:34 where you can see the integrated ladder frame...

Have you posted on the USA Montero Garage Sale Page on Facebook? That will likely get more views than here for a sale. It's still got plenty of life left for someone not to use it.

You will be very surprise and impressed by the off-road capabilities. I have been running 265/70/17 for a few years and have been happy. It does have some low hanging areas, but those can be addressed easily. The side steps can be removed easily along with the courtesy lights. Just make sure...
