Silverwulf's 99 Montero GenII.5 build

[off-roader]

With jacking your T-bars all the way is the ride harsher and do you leak diff fluid like 100 series cruisers?

How can you take off your stock roofrack? I have a RTT and ARB that would fit if the stock rails were gone.

Thanks in advance

Yes it's harsher. No, the diff's don't leak fluid but you are putting the suspension at an unnatural angle and the CV's will wear more. How much more is still a topic of discussion.

There are screws that hold it to the roof via attached nutserts. Assuming the nutserts don't spin, you should be able to easily unscrew the rack feet from the roof. If the nutserts spin, you can sometimes apply downward pressure while unscrewing to stop them from spinning or if all else fails, grip the nutserts from the inside (after getting 'under' the head liner) while removing the screws.

HTH.

Dakar decal?

Wow you're Monty looks GREAT! I know this thread is a few years old, but I was wondering where you got that awesome Dakar decal? I have a 98 that is very dark green (almost looks black) so I would need to find one that was white or maybe grey. I am not usually into putting decals on vehicles, but that one looks really cool and simple.

Thanks in advance

This is the first time I've seen this thread. That build is amazing. Did zwalcheff ever explain what he did to fix that oil leak he encountered?

Nice ride.

Good looking rig. I have a white '98 and I am looking to replace the roof rack. Do you have the specific part #'s for the one you installed?
