Yeah, this was a popular find down here. Thirty minutes later and I would have missed out according to the seller. Thank you. Glad to be back. You were an inspiration with your build, along with several others on this Mitsu thread. Good question being a fan of the 3. This forum was a big...

I feel like I'm home again. From its superior seating position and outward visibility to how its track feels like it puts you in the center of the universe, this Monty is all I've been wishing the H3 was. The Hummer was sold to a good home with nice people who will enjoy it on day trips in our...

That's the one.

Done deal. Watch for its build thread.

I am. Found a low-miles 2.5 I'm hoping to buy today if I can close the deal on my H3.

Reduced to $10,900

**SOLD** Overland purpose-built H3 with 3.7l I5 with Adventure package which includes locking rear differential with low ratio two-speed transfer case and skid plates. 171k Miles. $10,900. Located in Hurricane, Utah. Modifications include: PCM of North Carolina power-train control module...

They're alright off-road, no issues there, but they've become increasingly noisy on the pavement, more so than the Big Horn mudders I had on the Monty. Looking forward to getting back to Discoverers.

Not entirely, it's number two on my short list if I can't get the 2.5. Love the 3.0, but I've wanted to build a 2.0 or 2.5.

Thanks, though I'm not quite there yet. Found a clean, low miles gen 2.5 but I have to sell the H3 first. The market in Utah is saturated with them.

The H3 is up for sale. Looking at a clean Gen 2.5 Monty for the next build. Can't wait.

Blue Seat ST Fuse Box I added a Blue Sea ST four-circuit blade fuse block along with a five-gang common bus to handle the 12V/5V outlet, the Trail Tech Equinox Lamps and the additional 12V outlet I'll install before winter. The Blue Sea box is small enough to tuck under what little room is...

PHeller, I try to stay away from the grass-is-greener dissonance that's so easy to come by in this endeavor. I love the new 4Runner - it appears to have it all - but I'd rather spend my cash on travel than a finance payment. Some great advice I picked up here years ago was simply to figure out...

I would, in a heartbeat. You can pick up a nice Gen III for under $5k and have plenty left over for serious mods. Three things I miss most about the Montero; 1) the transmission. The tiptronic shifting allows the best of both worlds, its ratios and therefore shift points were better dialed in...

Progressive Series 465 Monotube Shock The original plan was to swap out the stock spring and go with a Top Gun 8kg spring upgrade to handle the load. That all changed when a) thinking all along that the adjustable stock spring was at its highest setting, but was in fact bottomed out with a...

Trail Tech Equinox Lights These lamps added a whopping 1052 lumens to the KLR's illumination, with 10 degree spot angles and adjustable output for each fixture. They burn at 6000 kelvin, making my stock head and high beam look like they belong on an old French scooter. Wanting to avoid any...

Thanks. Sub-frame hardware is still an issue on later KLRs from what I've read, but as you point out, the aftermarket has stepped up, like Eagle Mike who offer a drill-through upgrade and SW-Motech who has beefed up hardware on their crash bar attachments at the frame/sub-frame. I changed the...

Progressive Springs The KLR's first long ride made it painfully evident that the suspension would need some work. After researching tested alternatives I decided to go with Progressive springs on the front. The installation is straight forward, just take care to not strip the aluminum...

Protection The most vulnerable bits on the KLR are the radiator and engine case. There's no factory protection for the cooling system and the plastic skid plate that ships with the bike is more cosmetic than anything armored. And while the factory hand guards do well to deflect air...
