    Looking for sources

    I would grab the 4.9s from PLH, he's solid. Otherwise they can be found on '00 and later Sports and the best way I've found for determining is looking up a specific truck's VIN # on partsouq.com and then verifying the ring and pinion gearing and part #s. All V6 Sports should have a high pinion...

    Gen 2 '92 Montero Diesel Swap questions

    As I understand it, based on an explanation I saw posted by a Delica specific shop, Hyundai will continue to manufacture the 4D56t/D4BF, they've simply decided to stop selling them as stand alone crate motor units to third party shops/individuals/etc. Which is a bummer, since it was a such a...

    Advice on Refreshing a Gen 2.5

    If I were getting a recently purchased 2.5 I intended to keep for a while up to snuff, in addition to what's already been listed, I would also look at and consider the following: -Flush the brake fluid and inspect pads, if new rotors were needed then do the 315mm upgrade -Inspect and replace...

    Gen 2 Hitch plate/recovery point strength

    What grade are the bolts? https://www.boltdepot.com/fastener-information/materials-and-grades/bolt-grade-chart.aspx This isn't something you want to guess on. The implications of a failed recovery point can be fatal, a fact driven home by the accident in AZ that went viral last week...

    "Betty White" 95 SR Restoration/ Diesel Build Thread.

    I don't feel the Cummins R2.8 as a particularly ideal swap candidate either, for various reasons, but there is a Delica owner currently installing one. https://starwagon.info/cummins-r2-8-engine-swap/

    SYMMETRY 4WD 99/00 NL Pajero/Montero LWB Gen 2.5 Blister Fender 2.8 TD 4M40 - South Africa - Build

    The only real trick is on the driver's side CV, on a LHD vehicle, be sure to shove the CV all the way into the front diff before giving it a good solid yank to pull it straight out so that the spring clip doesn't hang up. Definitely stick with and reboot the OEM CVs, they're much better built...

    SYMMETRY 4WD 99/00 NL Pajero/Montero LWB Gen 2.5 Blister Fender 2.8 TD 4M40 - South Africa - Build

    There should be a small metal plate riveted to the firewall at the back of the engine bay listing the model of motor, transmission, diff gearing, exterior color, etc. Also, I noticed in the title of this thread you indicated the truck is a TDI (Turbo Direct Injection), if it has the 4M40 I'm...

    Gearing - Making the XR400 a better "adventure" bike

    It seems this may actually pan out. I placed orders for the requisite two gears mentioned above and they've both just shipped; hoping they arrive from Japan and the Netherlands by early next week. It was about $125 USD for both of them, including international shipping, which is pretty cheap...
