    Ecoflow Delta 2 vs DIY Battery Setup

    This an interesting question these days. I have a Delta 2. I chose to go this route because at least right now, I’m mostly doing just weekend trips and wanted to be able to easily pull everything out of my truck during the week. We had a couple days where the power went out around Christmas and...

    Thinking of going from Tacoma to 4Runner

    I own a 2nd gen Tacoma dclb and my wife just bought a ‘19 4Runner TRD premium. I agree with the people commenting that the 4Runner is much nicer and we always grab the keys for it when taking a drive. I can’t wait for the day she gets bored with it and let’s me have it permanently. However...

    Quick getaway

    Went up to Taylor lake in Oregon this past weekend when the wife and the dog decided hanging out at the house would be too boring. They're always so smart. The drive out to the lake was our first real trip down some forest roads since we made the move to the PNW. The dog was convinced we...

    2001 Montero Fan Clutch

    So I received the second part and it is exactly the same as the first one they sent me. Apparently being a different brand, part number, and price doesn't mean it is actually a different part... Anyway, before I order the $300 part from my local mitsu dealer can anyone confirm that this looks...

    2001 Montero Fan Clutch

    I originally ordered the Hayden that is no longer listed on their site. I'm currently waiting for the Four Seasons listed on the site to show up. According to the dimensions they told me it should fit but I guess we'll see. My local Mitsu dealer quoted me well over $300 so the savings with the...

    2001 Montero Fan Clutch

    Hi everybody, I have a quick question. I have a 2001 Montero and the fan clutch seems to be bad so I ordered a replacement Hayden unit off of Rock Auto. I was putting the part on today and realized it is slightly smaller than the one I took off and is too small to bolt to the fan blades. I...

    Totaled gen 3 montero. :(

    The way that rear quarter panel is buckled I would be very hesitant to repair it. I think you're better off negotiating a fair settlement with the adjuster and looking for another Montero. When it comes to the insurance company you can go through your insurance if you have collision coverage...

    3rd gen Montero questions

    I'm looking at purchasing a very clean 2001 full size Montero and have a few questions. This Montero has the cloth interior and appears to be as base model as I've seen. My question is, do all 3rd gen Monteros have limited slip? I've read some people referring to a locking center diff...this...

    Question for the Astro experts

    Thanks guys! Hopefully I can find something in the next couple of months so we can start using it this summer. I'm getting this unbearable itch to get out on the road... :rally_guys:

    Question for the Astro experts

    That's some good info, thanks! I have found quite a few that seem to be in relatively good shape for the price which is why the Astro landed on my radar to begin with. I imagine putting slightly more aggressive tires on it, fixing any broken or worn out bits and then building a comfortable...

    Question for the Astro experts

    I'm seriously considering picking up an AWD Astro for use as a road trip and camp vehicle for my wife, myself, and our dog. I have the ability to run a GM VIN at work and look at the original build sheet and I am curious about a couple of things. I have read that some of these came with a...

    Decisions are hard!

    Thanks for all of the replies! I would go the van route but to be perfectly honest I have little desire at this point to do any major modifications. I want something that I can just get in and drive with little work from me to make it capable. I really can't shake the explorer idea. The fact...

    Decisions are hard!

    I've considered a Tahoe, but I get nervous about the steering set up. I've been told that they can be pretty weak. I like the idea of staying as close to stock as possible so maybe I shouldn't be too concerned? In my area Tahoes are around the same price as a similar mileage Cherokee. Is there...

    Decisions are hard!

    Ok, I've finally broken down and realized I just don't have any idea what the hell I'm doing...:Wow1: I'm trying to decide what my next vehicle will be and either I am extremely picky or there just aren't many choices that fit my criteria... My criteria is as follows: 1) Must be comfortable...

    Fuel lines rusted on my '91 Monte

    Thanks for the responses! So, if I'm understanding correctly the metal lines coming off of the pump cover can be replaced? If that's the case then I won't worry so much about them as I really need to replace those as well since everything is so rusted. When I look up replacement pumps it...

    Fuel lines rusted on my '91 Monte

    I'm curious if anyone has dealt with this before and can maybe point me in the right direction. My problem is my truck started leaking fuel one day and when I crawled under it to find the leak I could see that the fuel lines are in very bad shape. The bigger problem though is the fitting on...

    bought a '91 LWB

    No worries, I really couldn't wrap my head around the idea of that size tire on the 15x6 wheel. I had no idea there were two different sizes stock and mine look very similar to the pictures I've seen. Easy way to get confused. I've started looking at some wheels and I may just go ahead and...

    bought a '91 LWB

    Hey thanks! I really appreciate the response. I feel like an idiot having to ask but I tend to worry about these types of things a little more than I should. I'll try to get some pictures of my new rig up after work. I can't believe I'm this excited! I purchased this thing to get me...
