The Montero has been essential to my grocery shopping this season....

Lusooverland and Partsouq have been great for me. Luso should have suspension bits in stock. I also had some luck down in Daytona with Steve at Mitsubishi parts direct.

I've had a hell of year with mine....but I still really enjoy it as a DD and tow vehicle. Check those CV axles ....man they're a ********** to find.

It's crazy how bright they are....but there are a few "dead" spots from the reflectors. Overall it was worth it....I even put the clear 3M wrap on them to keep them from yellowing

There is no nut on the rear of the headlight assembly. You do not need to access behind wheel well.

well, after almost 6 months......I got my monty back from a full engine rebuild. doing my due diligence and being nice for 500 mies. I got her home and threw some parts I had accumulated at her. I should've done the headlights last year!

I just had my engine rebuilt for 2975. I supplied most of the parts minus crank bearings and rings. It's on it's way back to me so I should have more of an opinion in the coming months.

Good to know....I called them and was told they currently didn't have stock and didn't know when they would. This was a month ago and I just checked 2 of the sizes. thanks!

Hey all, wondering where is the best place to buy rod and main bearings without having to wait a month? I have yet to mic them, but the only ones I see that are easily available are Enginetech, DNJ, and ITM. I'm not sure I want those in my motor. Any advice appreciated. 2006 montero.

Esh....I’ve found mitsu gaskets sets but they’re an arm and a leg, which I’d happily pay for but shipping will put it a month out. I just can’t wait that long. I may order a Ajusa top end set jic. I was hoping to use their full set but I couldn’t find one.

Thanks. Good to hear someone that has seen the DNJ stuff. I was looking for Ajusa or Mitsu but I can't wait a month unfortunately its my DD. I'd be a hell of a lot more worried if it was a turbo....

Hello all.....I'm starting to order parts for my engine rebuild and am having a hell of time finding quality parts. I need a full gasket set, already got Mitsu head gaskets from Marco. But I also need standard size rings, rod bearing, main bearing (crank) and thrust bearings and this ********...

Wow! That rear bumper looks awesome!

yep, this is what we've decided to do.....mic all the bearings, new oil pump, rebuild heads, blah blah blah....fix other annoying issues...... After talking with folks about the longevity of the bottom end I'm pretty confident that this is the best path forward.

Ohhhh.....FIELD TRIP!

I've been looking into the 1UZ but Toasty is using a 2.5 gen......I'm in a 3. Not quite apples to apples.....

I'm in Atlanta proper

I just remembered I checked with them and they currently have nothing for me. Sounded like a good place!

Yeah I wish that was the case but they are never in junkyards in the SE for some reason. I can't even find a remaned unit. I might have to give up or rebuild the existing motor and never fully trusting it.....

Hey all! I bought a 2006 Montero back in October of 2019 with 69k. I proceeded to do all the maintenance catch up stuff asap, so first was the timing belt and parts along with an updated crank bolt. Did the tune up and split the plenum to check the butterfly screws, valve cover gaskets. All...
