Getting the Wheeling Fever
Just wanted to officially say hello. I picked up my Montero about a month ago and have been working on her a little here and there. I just got done with my Chevy LUV. If you would like to see it you can go here LUV

I just got done today with new shoes, CV joint boots, and front bearings. Paid almost as much for the tires as the whole truck! I have a rain water leak on the drivers floorboard I need to find. New carpet and I'm sure there is more!

Welcome to The Wire! Take a look around your windshield for the leak. Had to recaulk my 95 about two years ago. It was coming in around the rear view mirror when it rained bad.

Thanks! It really is pretty clean for $700! The tires are BF Goodrich ATs and I went with 33/10.50.

When I bought it the owner thought the cam belt had slipped and it needed major work. Come to find out the pulley bolt got loose and sheared the pins holding the sensor wheel. It runs great now!
