    Replacing Header Gaskets

    At the beginning of last winter I noticed that characteristic sewing-machine ticking sound from under the hood of my Gen III, 3.8l. The sound would go away after it warmed up. I'd sniff around under the hood trying to determine an exhaust leak but couldn't definitively detect one. Now the...

    Repurposed Pelican

    Break-away Pelican I made a cleat from from sheet plastic I salvaged from another old and broken Pelican case. I traced the cleat footprint using the plastic pocket as a template and cut the cleat out with a jig saw. I checked the cleat for fit and then marked its position relative to the...

    Help determining Montero Purchase!!!

    Plus one DR1665, well written. True, the air intake plenum has to come out for a plug change, but it's not as daunting as it may look. On the 3.8l most of the bolts are easily accessible save for the one at the rear, hidden behind the plenum itself. Mitsu electrics use different connectors at...

    Thanks Trent. A bit steep for me, especially starting from the ground on this rig.

    Repurposed Pelican

    And it's a good thought. I'm thinking to install a Quick Fist grip to retain the handle of the case above while I fashion a cleat much like the factory door pocket uses to hold the pocket in place at the bottom. I'll rivet a plastic plate that I'm shaping to the bottom backside of the case. It...

    Repurposed Pelican

    The rear door storage on the '03 Gen III doesn't serve much purpose save for a poorly designed way to stash headrests from the third row seat and a narrow but deep pocket for stowage of small items. Working in film production with advancing technology making cameras and supporting gear...

    Shifting Gear

    I agree. Moab is the Disneyland of red rock and anyone with a knobby or two is making a go of it. I love the town, but if you're wanting to get away from the mob (and I'm into small groups as well), there's plenty out here to feel more isolated and challenged.

    Shifting Gear

    Shifting gear... new to ExPo as I'm prepping out my Gen III for overlanding. We're avid moto-tourers/campers, ocean kayakers as well, but are to the point of wanting to overnight a bit more comfortably than with what can be ported on my CBR 1100 XX or a pair of kayaks. We live in Southern Utah...
