I had these same tires on my gen one and hardly any road noise. That being said I might not have been able to hear them over all the rattles and everything else that truck had going on. I had the older Cooper St tires on my 80 series and they were pretty loud but that was a more aggressive tire...

My head gasket on my gen 1 gave up so I'm selling my truck. I have been holding out for someone who wants to keep it running but everyone wants to buy it just for parts. I have a small stock pile of new parts that I don't want to give to someone who is just going to part it out and was wondering...

Is anyone else running at3 tires on a gen 3? I'm just wondering because I have alot of road noise coming from the rear and was looking to see if other people are getting the same thing.

All right. I spent some time over the last few and am happy to say I'm in the beta stage. Every thing is hooked and the software is pretty much set. I'm using a mount that slides into the CD player the holds the tablet. I don't want to cut my dash apart till I'm positive it's going to work. At...

So test member two last night. When I went to bed I set the tablet as if the ignition was off. When I went to bed then battery was %66 and when woke it was %51 and that was 8 hours. So in theory I should've good with it in the car with the car off for few days before the battery dies. No it's...

I'm on project Fi and last night I tested out my Tasker profile that built that discounts everything when the tablet Is disconnected from power. Anyway it didn't disconnect movie data and in the background the CBS app was running so this morning when I woke up I had used over a gig a data. That...

Man you guys really took the wind out of my sail on this. Also the tablet seems to eat data like no other even when I have mobile data off...turns out it won't really let me turn off mobile data.

That being said that head unit looks pretty good. I'm tempted .

Building it is half the fun. Plus it will have ton more functions. I will say if anyone is going to attempt it a gen II Nexus 7 will make it a whole lot easier

Yeah losing the sub will be ok. My plan is to replace the door speakers and see how it goes. Totally going to ad a obdII reader I used to run a scan gauge in my land cruiser and it was awesome.

I decided to start a kind of build thread on this. I will update it as I figure this all out. The plan so far. I have a Bluetooth amp that I'm going to install in the place of the factory amp. My hope is this will connect to the tablet and I'll be able to delete the head unit completely. It is...

Yeah install is going to be last for sure. I'm looking for a gen III in junkyard so I can pull of the dash so I can cut that one and see if I can make the 8.3 tablet fit and not mess up my car. I'm also installing the Bluetooth amp to the existing head unit so I can still have a steel while I...

Alright I think I'm going to get started on this project. The plan I'm using my lg 8.3 tablet because I already have it In the tablet I have a project Fi data only sim card so I'm good with a signal. I also have a Garmin glo which is a little box that you bluetooth to and have access it Garmin...

Sweet! My gen one just blew a head gasket and as much as I loved it it was time to get something with a few more safety features for the family. I grew up in Michigan and always wanted a gen one but yeah rust had destroyed them. When I moved to the west coast I sold my rusty land cruiser and...

The truck came with Cooper at3 tires. The fronts were new last month and the rears have under 10,000 on them the are 265/70/16 these are the same tires I had on my 1990 Montero.i like this tire alot but I do feel the tend to wander at highway speeds and the ones on my gen 3 are pretty loud...

Man do I love this truck . It snowed here in the Pacific Northwest yesterday and I had to drive on the highway in it. I'm from Michigan so I know how to drive in the snow but the think was so good in the awd. So far I'm in love

I jumped the gun on this. I thought it was done deal but nope. I have few more people interested. I appreciate he was straight up with me said he was just going to use it for parts and it deserved better then that. Im in no huge hurry to sell it I want it to go to someone who will appreciate it.

Yeah think the transmission flush is going to happen. He had it flushed 50,000 ago so it's do I bet it the sp-3

That's the truth

I got guy who is going to buy my 1990 Montero with bad head gasket. I just bought a 2003 Montero and want to spend that $1000 on it. The 2003 is in great shape and doesn't need anything that I know of. The suspension has not been replaced. What would you spend the $1000 on?
