They are out of my 1998 Montero, a beautiful brown putty color..! Very good condition, hardware included. Pick up in the LA area. Let me know if interested. $100 sound good? I’ll post pics shortly.

Hey all, been a bit but I need my valve stem seals and perhaps lifters done. I'd normally DIY it but time, kids, wife request... I tried C&A in Van Nuys but apparently the guru Chai retired to Thailand in March. I didn't get the impression that the new owners were nearly as familiar with our...

Just the hazards, no headlights.

I'm not sure if this is relevant but when I remove my negative terminal from the battery and then reconnect, the hazard lights go on. I can hear the relay clicking in the fuse box under the hood and all four corner lights flash. Once I hit lock/unlock on my fob, it stops. The multi CD player...

Ha! Was just about to check that!

One other thing I just discovered. Someone cut the wires going into the alarm horn. I pulled the alarm horn out from its home and it’s no longer connected to anything. Perhaps the alarm was going off randomly and previous owner just cut wires at the sound source vs fixing the problem. Maybe my...

I have gone through three different batteries and each has been drained flat if I don’t have my trickle charger connected. Even with the trickle charger, they’ll eventually drain, just takes longer.

Thanks for the feedback guys. I’ll check into borrowing a meter with a clamp from a buddy. Everything I’ve read says that a normal draw is typically under 50-65ma, I’m over 10x that. Does our ECU, etc. really draw that much vs other vehicles? Again, I’ve been lucky that most of my vehicles over...

Hey guys, so my battery has been petering out over the course of a week or so if not hooked up to a trickle charger. I have a '98 with 168k miles, the battery is from Autozone, maybe a year old. I did a parasitic draw test and have a 700ma or so pull. I went through the rigmorole of pulling...

Ya know, I hadn't thought of that.. I did replace the OEM brass screws with hardware store hex heads as the originals were rather beaten up. I did try to get them as close to OEM as possible but I wonder if they stuck out a bit on the back end and caused this.. Great input Shovel.

The rollers in that spot looked ok but I went ahead and replaced the entire bearing, race and all, just to be safe.

The hub and and race looked ok, nice and smooth.

So I swapped out my wheel bearings a couple years back and only have maybe 3k miles on them. Not long after I noticed growling/grinding from the front and finally got the chance to look into it this past weekend. Here is the pic of my driver's side outer bearing. You can see the cage is...

Need to do this on my '98. Wish I'd have just knocked it out when doing the plugs and pulleys... Thanks for the clips and advice.

Great rig. I recently pulled the same wheels off of a Sport at LKQ in Sun Valley. Haven't seen too many other full size Monteros with them but I've been happy, particularly at $40 a pop! Mine is a dirtbike hauler as well. I use the MXHauler to tote around my WR450. Problem is, said truck...

I received one as well. Has anyone broken the seal and had it serviced yet? I sure as hell don't want a buyback but the only reference I see to this comes from Australia..

I was able to get the new wheel stud in easily so Mitsu may have done a bit of a redesign by '98. I still haven't been able to sort out the rubbing/groaning that seems to kick in around 15mph. I had it up on stands, had it at two different shops, up in the air, running, not running... One guy...

Great, thank you. I'll check them out.

Who did your re-gear? I sent you a PM as I'd like to do this at some point as well.
