    Winch plate or Front Hitch Receiver w/removable winch???

    Personally I like the idea of the front hitch mount especially if you have a rear hitch. But it will probably stick out more generally than if it was integrated into a bumper

    Jaynen's Black Gen 3

    Checked my mileage today on the trip back after thanksgiving 22 almost 23 on the highway doing 65/70 On the way down I got like 15.5 so airing up the duratracs from the factory recommended 30 something to 45 really made a big difference

    Best overall tire suited for Overlanding/Expo?

    Just put 235/85/16 Duratracs on my rig and they seemed kind of loud, but once I put air in them to what I wanted and not what the sticker said (shop only put in like 30 psi) I bumped them up to 45 and they are much better on the highway now (also a large difference in fuel economy)

    Jaynen's Black Gen 3

    I think up next is some recovery gear to keep in the rig, some camping equipment and maybe some real sliders. I have not bashed the stock running boards hard yet but I imagine they won't hold up. I think I would like to get some sort of receiver mount on the front to put a winch on but I really...

    Jaynen's Black Gen 3

    My cousins Jeep got stuck in neutral with the transfer case which meant some adventures to get his rig out of where we were outside of Alsea Oregon. Ended up bringing a tow dolly up on the road, then using a recovery strap to tow his injured rig back down to the tow dolley. The montero performed...

    Jaynen's Black Gen 3

    Was some pretty scenery and a fun trip but I knew I could not leave her alone. So on went the 235/85/16 Wrangler Duratracs I ordered an OME lift at the same time but it took a bit to get it installed. We actually went to do it last weekend over at a nice volunteer from the Northwest Overland...

    Jaynen's Black Gen 3

    Figured I would start a thread to post pics even if it's not a crazy build or anything yet. Picked it up maybe a month ago (Nov 13) just under 90,000 miles recent timing belt absolutely immaculate. 2003 Mitsu Montero 20th Anniv Limited Black with Black interior. Thing feels tight as a drum no...

    New additions to my GEN3!

    The 03 has a rear LSD? I think I keep getting confused because some had a LSD and then they got the traction control (or do they have both?)

    Gen 3 fuel gauge weirdness?

    FYI I figured it out, we were installing OME suspension components today and low and behold the fuel tank is indeed a long skinny one on the passenger side that runs from pretty much along side both doors, because it is so long and flat this explains the gauge reading

    Pro Comp ES9000 shocks, anyone?

    You prefer the 5160 (non reservoir) to the fox 2.0's? getting valving right I guess is the hardest part. In sports car racing it seems more straight forward I can get a koni custom valved for the spring rates/weight etc
