My plan is to do the exact opposite type of build as I did on the Audikick. it's time for something comfortable,slow,sensible with a automatic. and I will do my best to not try to be "smarter" than factory engineers. most upgrades planned for this montero will be done with OEM parts and mild mannered.
With that said I will say I have been communicating with a exporter in Malaysia to maybe get a diesel half cut coming this way....stay tuned. And I will start a build thread soon. :bigbossHL:

I'm battling with this idea as well. Seriously thinking about a half cut as well. But I'm afraid of not having the time to commit to the project.
My 1989 Montero platform:
It has over 252K on supposedly the original engine. It definitely smokes but only sometimes. Even so, the engine always starts with no problems and idles/runs like butter . It runs straight and drives easily.
I picked it up for $900 a few years ago for the occasional camping trip, hauling stuff around, and safeguarding the other cars when we get snow or ice in the area.
For this reason I didn't need the back seat. Instead, I really wanted to maximize cargo area and also have room for a full size bed during pull-up camping trips.
I am *not* a carpenter, welder, or metal fabricator and this was honestly the most extensive thing I have ever built with my hands.
Because of this I built the platform mainly by trial and error instead of planing and measuring.
It took much longer than it should have, turned out pretty damn rough around the edges, and is probably over-built (inefficient for weight vs function).
That said, it works for what it was intended for and I've gotten a lot more use out of it than I ever would have a back seat.
Yes... I have a bad power steering fluid leak!
Frame only..
Fully deployed mode... front seats all the way forward. Platform area is 53"x76.5"
It's basically just planks with 2x2 guides on the inside
With the front seats back... showing hinged section and last plank below
Room for plenty of power steering fluid ;>
and lots of nooks and such for storage.. never figured out what that cut cable is for..
The back in non-deployed platform mode.
Thanks for looking!

You're not kidding, that thing is a work of art, I wonder who makes it.
I'm assuming you ladies mean this one?
Digging the wheels too. Good looking setup, the whole truck!

The bumper is nice. But I like/want the skid plate.
Any of you gents know where to locate a set of skids? Looking into a simple, custom set being made.

That, good sir, is a nameless aluminum $137, 10,000 piece, "we gotta this piece of crap out of the warehouse so we'll sell it on Amazon" roof rack.
I kid you not ... they paid for my shipping, just to get rid of the damn thing. It's some bro-level shop in SoCal. Half the bolt holes didn't even line up, I had to do some rubber mallet modifications to it. I couldn't justify the $2k on a Gobi rack just yet. Maybe later when this one falls off and causes an insurance claim. I can't even find this same one on Amazon anymore. I think it was made by some company called T-motorsports.
