    Thanks man. Best dog I have ever had or ever heard of for that matter. I have 26 people that are in line, wanting him should something happen to me. He won "King of Fredericksburg" and has a crown. This was last October and he is still technically a puppy. I enjoy his company more than anyone.

    Nice pics, I never really appreciated that color on the Montero until I saw what you did with yours. Looks great!

    Yeah, I didn't quite care for the rocker panel color that it had on it. I like the black down there much better. Those jeep guys I ride with are real good fellas and give the montero it's due. I am also working on joining another off road club. Lots a good people round here to ride with. Like this group here on the portal they're a good bunch.

    I agree 100%, that's one of the things that bugged me about my truck since I first bought it, the tan rocker panels, never been a two tone guy....

    So, I have this issue with the front differential, It would seem that the engagement rod isn't inserting enough to keep the front differential moving without some noise and possible damage. I may soon be pressing the rod in permanently since I have manual front locking hubs. Stay tuned.....

    If all else fails, just buy a used one from a local pick and pull. They're rarely worn out since 99% of montero's never see off road use or 4WD.

    Here are some pictures of the light switches, air locker switch, an E=tool that I fitted to the rear door, CB mounted up, CB antenna mount, an electric heater for those really cold mornings, and a couple of pictures of my new winch bumper with a brand new winch!
    I am looking to install some brush wire to my monty. What did you use on your hood?
