Getting the Wheeling Fever
That's a sharp looking rig SledgeHammer.

I need to do more digging myself, but I'm trying to find out whether mine is a true LS or an RS. I took a peek at the title for the first time in years and it said RS. I can only assume it was a DMV mess up, because this had LS emblems on it when I bought it. They were falling off, so I put them in a box somewhere along with the v6 ones. Are there any specific markers that would prove which one I have?

Here's what I know for sure:

driver side bouncy
inclinometer
alloy wheels
automatic
headlight washers
sunroof
what I assume to be a factory tow package

Looks like it's probably and LS. Just checked the sticker on the drivers door frame, and it shows LSD.

Do you happen to know the name or where the new place is supposed to be? I just called the only two I know a couple days ago, and they only had the newer model parts.

I've heard of Disney, but have never been to any trails before. I actually bought this Montero from a guy out in Jay not too far from there. It would be cool to make a trip of it when I get all the big maintenance stuff addressed. Feel like teaching a newbie?

I have a few buddy's that live out in Siloam, so I am out there fairly often. Well, used to. Got a 3 month old added to the bunch, so spare time isn't available too much these days.

There's the link. It looks like they're open now.

Newbies are fun at Disney! It's a family fun place. If you follow GPS to Hogan's Offroad, you'll get there. If you stay the night, stay at Hogan's. He has lots of RV parking. He also has decent RVs there that you can rent. If you stay with him and you break, he will drag you out for a much more reasonable price. He'll even let you use his shop & tools to repair.

I was born & raised in Siloam. If you know people here, I probably know them.


The kids called my wife's Montero the "Momtero". So, they called mine the "Dadtero".

A couple of my brothers got to go to that Pick-&-Pull yesterday. They said its great! They said there was one later model Montero there, but the manager said they have at least 150 more cars to set.

Javy,

I see what you did wrong. You tried to use a link to an album of pictures. You can do that but without using the img tags. If you use the img tags it has to the to the actual address of each picture and those addresses have to end in the correct file type (.jpg, .gif, .tif). If they are not the correct link, then for sure the image will not display.

I really do appreciate you trying btw. let me know if you have more questions. If need be, we can get on the phone and I can walk you through the whole process. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />
