I saw this poor 88 Montero this evening and had to share. Underneath appears a black Montero that could use a more reasonable owner. Price very extravagant, too.

That thing looks like it got attacked by the JC Whitney catalog. Probably has a "AOOOOOga" horn too.

I want to know where to get those wheels! And whats up with the chrome horns on the hood? Can you really see anything with those?

I've seen a lot of those style mirrors in Japan. Couldn't tell you if they work. My question, at the risk of enflaming some of you hardcore guys, is about the snorkel. My weber sits near the top of the motor / bottom of the hood... above a lot of the electrical type things in the dash. I assume nobody would take this vehicle, or more especially a new $40k jeep with the same type setup, into water that deep.

I wouldn't go deep with the weber. No real good way to waterproof it.

I hate the snorkel look unless your rig is built to go that deep. Previous owner put one on my truck.I think I'll looks poster honestly.

They didn't start their life on the suburban... I know the HD suburbans had a similar wheel to this but not the same one, and they were usually 8 lug I believe. hmmm

K&N or somebody makes an adapter for the top of the weber to adapt it to a tube. Then you get the K&N filter in the enclosed housing and finish the tubing to the snorkel. A little RTV and the weber could probably swim a little.
