I am planning on getting a UV82 after I get done spending money on the Montero :) Then a mobile of some sort (cross band repeater functional). I recently got my General license.

do you have a pic of it before you mounted it?

Were the arm and joint swappable?

Thanks Toasty.

I think this Timing Belt Service Kit (a rental tool at O'Reilly Auto Parts, for example) would help. It allows the cam gears to be held in place while you put the timing belt on.

Hey, Rock Auto seems to indicate that Hitachi is the manufacturer of the Mitsubishi water pump, not Aisin. I know from the Toyota world that Aisin was generally the preferred manufacturer. Does anyone have experience with this Aisin kit ? According to this link on Amazon, it includes...

Thanks for this.

running boards and mud flaps off

I'd love to see the update on the brakes, ball joints/wobble and anything else you've done.

I dont think they made the Gen 2.5 in manual versions. Made it to NC. Another fill up, calculated at 22 mpg. Tomorrow the running boards and mud guards come off.

Thanks !

Made it to Birmingham area, just now. 22 mpg from this last tank.

yep, 21 and 23 mpg so far, speed confirmed with GPS.

Thanks. I will let you know. I need to get back to where I am staying first.

Found it in Tucson. Over 200k and yes, first Montero. Looking forward to baselining it when I get to NC. Is a new tcase shifter bushing available or are they sourced from salvage yards ?

Also, the tcase doesn't go into 4Llc easily. Going to look into that too...possibly the bushing.

98 winter package. No rust. Well maintained and documented. Going to be doing the front cam seals and freshening up the front end when I get back to NC. Looking in to the Adventure Driven Design idler arm upgrade products too. Two tanks full of fuel so far has me getting 21 mpg, then 23 mpg.

I definitely want one of those bumpers !
