My turn. 1995 Montero SR build thread...

[jluck]

Well I left the highly modified Suzuki scene for something more sensible. I had intentions of a G500 or Porsche cayenne build but with recent future uncertainty's at work and in investments I decided (with my financial dept.'s "advice")(see;wife) I would build another older rig.After much research and constant quest to go against the grain I chose a SR Montero.

Day one; New battery, wiper blades, 33x10.5x15 BFG KM2's and lots of little stuff. (bulbs,leaks etc..)





Day Two; My infamous "stupid big" 4/0 battery cables with flag terminals for winch leads, oil cooler line

I like those battery terminals! Nice clean look.

day three; montero had one broke head light so I replaced it and hand polished both headlights and markers. also scrapped the factory brush guard


next on the list.....

I found bouncy seat bases and will have the seats re-covered and rebuilt soon.

I like those battery terminals! Nice clean look.

Thanks. I really like them this way. I salvaged the 4/0 wire from a recycle bin (It's soft fine wire copper). I looked up the beldin part number and it's 20.00 a FOOT new! I got 63 feet of it for free because it had a couple nicked spots that I just cut out. SCORE!!

I like this build already, you're gonna love you're new ride and I have a feeling you're not gonna miss your Zuke.

Looking good.

[jluck]

I don't really don't like the open element but I have a 1 MPG increase goal to make.(more is a bonus)
