    Need some help locating a part for my Gen 3

    Heya, When trying to pass smog with my 2003 Montero, it managed to fail pretty badly on something and I am surprised at it - it appears that a few parts have been removed at some point and never put back for some reason. Unfortunately I have been unable to really find these parts online as I...

    Rear door ladder for a Gen 3?

    Heya, Just a simple question: does anyone know if there are rear-door ladders available for Gen 3 monteros? Ebay didn't come up with anything for me recently, but I do know they exist. Or do I have to look in Australia for this? Thanks.

    Marutuk's Gen III Build

    Because my car has had plenty of modifications and it still is a work-in-progress, I decided to start a build thread to consolidate everything. Some history on the vehicle: The Montero was initially in possession of ImNoSaint who is quite famous for his build thread on his '03. This can be...

    Re-gearing Gen 3?

    Heya, Recently I have been looking at some upgrades for my '03 Monty and people have been mentioning re-gearing it to go to 4.9 gears on Gen 3's to help with the larger tires (using 255/85/16 atm - 33" I believe). Also, one of the other things that come at the same time would be getting an LSD...

    HAM Antenna placement?

    Heya all, Maybe it should be in the other subforum related to this. Since I recently managed to get my Technician license, I am looking to install a ham radio in my Gen 3 (current deciding between a Kenwood TM-V71A and the ICOM IC-2730A), and I was trying to get some inspiration on antenna...

    New Bumper on my '03

    Heya, I'm currently the proud owner of Imnosaint's '03 Montero Limited, and one of the things I wanted to add to it early on was a new bumper to replace the plastic one that was on there by default. As luck had it, Eurosonic was selling his old ARB bumper (from an FJ), so we went up to his...

    Looking for a 4wd shifter knob plaque for a '98 Montero

    Heya, We took our '98 Montero to a car wash a while back and they managed to clean it too well; by doing so they managed to loosen and lose the plaque that is on top of the 4wd shifter knob. While not a very important component, it does help having this one there so you can see what 4wd mode...

    Strange sound from steering column

    Hello, I recently got myself a 2003 Montero, and while it is fine, it sometimes makes a sort of "quacking" noise when it shifts from slow-to-breaking or from break-to-slow, which does not always happen and doesn't happen when the car has been driven for a while. The car does not handle any...

    What to have in an on-board toolkit

    Heya, As my first post here, I wanted to ask for some advice from those of you who are quite a bit more experienced at this. Recently I purchased a Gen 3 Montero (which used to be Imnosaint's - there is a great build thread on that one) and am trying to get things in order for it so I can...
