heres the link for doing the crank...
http://www.4x4wire.com/mitsubishi/tech/minutemods/torsion_bar/ as for a specific amount of turns, i dont think there is one. just keep track so you get both sides even.

I'm starting to understand how you guys break so many parts now. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />

Do I need to flip the ball joint if I were to crank up the torsion bar? I had to do that to my trooper...

When rockcrawling, there are many situations where you just don't have a choice but to crank hard right/left

Pfftttthhttt...there's ALWAYS a choice, always more than one line. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> Wasn't meant as a dig though. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/ignore.gif" alt="" />

Wheel center hole must be at least 4 1/8".

2.6 upper starter bolt is hard to get to for the clutch....

Thank you again with all these informations guys. I can't wait to work on my monty as my trail rig 91 trooper is now a scrap metal...

I'd have to agree with Ray on that one. I've done a fair amount of hard-core wheeling with my rig (both stock and heavily modded) and sometimes the best line is the one that makes you crank to one extreme or the other. I find that I do a lot less now with the mods, but every once in a while that's what's necessary for safer negotiation.

Not really. Having never replaced a clutch before, the clutch on my Montero was the first one I ever did myself (right after I brought it home for the first time). I found that it was fairly easy. I'd suggest you get a kit which has the alignment tool...will make it a bit easier.
