I’m located in Minneapolis, but we’re in Milwaukee all the time. My wife’s family lives there. Delafield, Brookfield, Wauwatosa and Whitefish Bay. If the gear ratio is correct, I will absolutely buy it from you. Do you have the switch and compressor too? Thanks.

Thanks Toasty. I’ve considered that option. I’d need to replace the front diff too so ratios match, correct?

Taken from ADD site. This also aligns with my engine plate for the ratio. Ratio: 4.625 28 spline 9” diff

Hello. Does anybody make a lunchbox locker for my ‘94 Montero LS (3.0L w/5-speed)? Was hoping to find a Powertrax or Spartan but I can’t find the diff or axle specs. Any help is greatly appreciated! Thx, PC

My first 4WD was a 1986 Montero (2dr here in the states). I remember being SOOO excited to have a real safari-style vehicle and making mods to it as my 16yo means allowed. Fog lights, CB radio, 31” BFGs. After my second year of college I sold it for to get something with more space, but I never...

Started tearing down my 3.0L 12V to replace valve seals, T-Belt and water pump.

I installed battery hold down, air cleaner, interior light bulbs and wiper blades. I bought T-Belt / Water pump kit, valve stem seals, brake pads, drive belts, all fluids and am preparing for my build.

well, I Pulled the trigger on a rust free 1994 today for $350. Its a 3.0 12-Valve, SOHC with a 5-speed and fabric seats! Exactly what I wanted for my build minus rear diff lock. Super excited. I plan to dump my remaining money into maintenance and mods...build coming up next!

Thanks. That’s great feedback. As much as I love the simplicity and look of the Gen 1...and I love manual transmissions...I’m thinking Gen 2 is the best option. My wife and 2 boys and I are planning a 14 day / 5,000 mile road trip next summer that will take us through mountain passes, coastal...

Good point about the low miles and potentially torn seals. Would you have concerns about the 205k on the other rig assuming proper maintenance?

Thank you for the responses! I’m surprised / encouraged to see that nobody said anything about the high mileage on the gen 2. Must not be that unusual for these to achieve 200k and still be trusted. Were the automatics in these well built and capable of high miles?

Hi. I’m looking to do an overland build on a moderate budget and decided the Montero was the right platform. The 2 trucks I’m looking at: 1990 Montero, 3.0L SOHC, 5-speed, 98k original miles, totally stock original, near perfect condition, $3k 1992 Montero, 3.0L SOHC, Automatic, 205k miles...
