Not to mention, I think he was going like 60mph on dirt roads with 37" tires and does a lot of difficult trails so the LCAs might have been weakened before hand. I'd bet on the stock LCAs being fine on easy-moderate trails with 35s unless you really push it. I'm not aware of any reports in the...

I like it! Are you going to move your spare up there or use that location for something else? ps - tip - add some reflectors or lights or something on parts that stick far out because it sucks to ********** your chins on a hitch in the dark, ask me how I know haha.

Thank you for the kind words, business, and willingness to pioneer this platform in the USA with all of us on here. Once e61overland installs his Lovells front springs I'm sure he'll let everyone know the results here and for those interested in purchasing please contact me via the Luso Overland...

Nice! I got the same RedArc installed on my 13 QX56. I'm in the process of increasing aftermarket Y62 support in the USA by importing parts from Australia through my company, Luso Overland. Skids, coils, and poly bushings to start since we already have established relationships with Boo's Bash...

11/01/20: Like all Gen3s, my driver side seat has a couple small holes just above the power seat switch and recently one of the main horizontal seams split. Although my seat is still in quite good shape compared to most, I went ahead and ordered two seat covers to arrest the damage and keep it...

10/31/20: Woke up to a dead battery (of course the DieHard Gold lasted just 1 month past its free replacement warranty) so I finally had an excuse to pull the trigger on the battery I had been lusting over for a very long time. I had always planned on getting the Group 31M version of the X2...

PS - When you get new wheels, let me know if you want to sell your old ones.

You're correct, the only way to get 3" of lift would be either Kings, or a combination of any other brand of lift + spacer or higher spring perch.

It’s easily doable with a raised height lift (lovells, ome, dobinson, etc) and the addition of either a top hat spacer or raising the spring perch up on the higher setting on Bilstein shocks AND as long as your wheel offset is +15, no wider or else you’re gonna have to cut some fenders probably...

Great job grabbing that one, I was just behind you in line if you passed on it! 1. Join “Mitsubishi Gen3 Squad” for the most active gen3 group. Use the search for all tech questions as pretty much everything jas been covered multiple times in that group. 2. Definitely download the free FSM as...

08/03/20: I got tired of the loss of low end torque with having my butterfly valves deleted. I sprung for a new OEM surgetank (MN135871) and had it installed with new OEM gaskets as well. Red loctite on the bolt ends for 1% extra insurance...though they should be good for at least 100,000...

I've never heard of anyone doing custom UCA/LCAs on a Montero to correct for alignment problems so I can't really speak to that. You'll also notice that your UCAs hit your shocks when the suspension is at full droop because of the spacers. I would forget about running the spacers and then you...

I just gotta say, this is an amazing thread. I don't own a QX56 or Armada, in fact, I've never even owned a Nissan. I'm a Montero enthusiast, here's my latest Montero build thread and my Montero focused company. However, I've been pondering switching platforms for quite some time now because...

07/19/20: Went back to Uhaul to fix an issue where I would blow headlight fuses whenever I was towing a trailer. They found an additional ground was needed and took care of it. 7/23/20: I decided to press on with the goal of replacing all original rubber. Having already accomplished 6 out of 8...

Hrmmm, I'm not so sure making custom arms would be necessary. The OEM arms are already very strong. I can see making custom UCAs though if you just put a large strut top hat spacer to achieve the lift to solve the shock contacting the arm problem but I would not recommend that lift because of...

6/21/20: Got around to fixing an oil leak coming from the top of the oil fill cap, just a 2 second job to replace that gasket. https://www.instagram.com/tv/CCCIBjqnuXF/ 6/27/20: After not having the front sway bar on for like 6 months, I decided to put it back on. The Gen3 is plenty stable...

A few months back, I also wanted to see what a new black grille would like on the front so again I pillaged the Luso Overland stock and gave it a spin. I kinda liked it, and most people that I asked did too, but at certain angles the contrast from silver to black just seemed off to me so I stuck...

I know I have not posted in a loooong time. My last update on this build thread was on 2/26/20 and I launched LusoOverland.com on 3/1/20 so that explains my absence as work has been super busy. But in a good way, you guys have been keeping me busy with orders and I certainly appreciate it...

Thanks for the feedback and for reading along and welcome to the community!
