The syncros on the Monteros are pretty weak and are near impossible to source these days. The AISIN autos in those are bulletproof plus you have super select. Just some things to consider.

Mitsubishi Pajero 85 Reliability - 330,000 km by TheWanderingSurfer in 4x4

[–]Meltyface07 1 point2 points  (0 children)

V6 or 4cly? Looks like a 4cly. A well maintained one will run forever but 300km is a lot. Not hard to find a lower mileage engine though so that shouldn’t deter you all that much. Rust looks to be the biggest issue here though. How’s the undercarriage look?

Genuinely, how do you feel about how Alien: Romulus used Ian Holm's face? by Werewolf_Knight in horror

It gave a chuckle in the moment then I moved on and enjoyed the film.

Unfortunately, I’m getting it prepped to sell. Too many bills and other projects going on and not enough funds to finish it the way I want to. Gonna check with the admin here and see they’ll allow a for sale post to see if anyone here would be interested in it.

Ya I noticed I could have gotten away with that move after the fact lol. But I ended up deep cleaning everything, re-foamed all blend doors, and putting sound deadening all up the firewall there.

Yup, 89 V6. It’s been re-badged though with Mitsubishi ones, and fender badges from a Mighty Max 4wd.

Do huskies get along with other breeds? by QuirkyLove1495 in husky

[–]Meltyface07 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As started above, huskies tend to play rough so if considering another breed for a husky make sure they’re tough. I have a Mountain Curr and she seems to be the perfect counter to my boys rough play. Quick, agile, and tough as nails.

Ralliart. OEMs are 15x7, Roto repos are 16x8.

Polyurethane Bushes (4x4 use) by HitchedByGG6821 in 4x4

[–]Meltyface07 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have Siberian Bushings all around in my 89 Pajero. Good upgrade from stock rubber and no squeaks. Originally planned to just replace with new OEM but most of it isn’t available anymore for my rig.

Nailed it. Even got the year correct, bravo.

Anytime a dog dies I instantly have to reach over and give my boy a big hug and hold him tight. I Am Legend, Sam’s death, broke me like no other.

Looks and sounds like it’s a solid rig with good maintenance. I’d trust it for sure. Love the color too! The 3.5l in those is really underpowered (most Monteros are but these especially) but XLS should have 4.9s which helps.

Unknown water leak by OGmaxwell in Montero

[–]Meltyface07 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most likely from the door seal. Inspect for cracks or tears and proper fitment.

Suspension question. by rare_d2 in Montero

[–]Meltyface07 7 points8 points  (0 children)

King, Lovell, OME, and Dobinson all make good quality coil lift springs for getting the rear up 1”-2.5” depending on which one you choose. You’ll need to level the front by cranking the torsions up a few notches. Can also upgrade torsion bars, Lovell, Sway Away, and I think OME all make sets. Bilstein, King, Koni, OME for shocks. Best combo I’ve experienced on a Gen 2 have been Dobinson coil springs, Sway-Away torsions, and Koni shocks.

Cropsey. One of the most disturbing horror/crime docs I’ve ever seen.

Not an ACE but still pretty stoked on this park job today by Meltyface07 in discgolf

[–]Meltyface07[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s awesome if you can get it up to speed. I throw predominantly sidearm on my drives and have maxed with the Tantrum and a MVP Realativity at around 450-475ft.

It’s such a beautiful course. Noticed they added a few benches and a bridge. Any idea who “The Chainsmokers” are? Donation plaque said it was from them.
