Nice truck, but I thinks he's mixed up on the year.

Is that Lloyd's rig?


Fasteddy's advice is occasionally sound...

SWB was available all years of the Gen1 and by '90 they were all V6. At least according to the Mitsubishi brochure I have.

Definately Lloyd's truck.
I beleive that 90 was the last year for the Gen 1 SWB, in the States anyway... <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/ignore.gif" alt="" />

I thought Lloyd had a Detroit front diff as opposed to an ARB.

Lloyd had a Detroit in the front, and once ARB came out with the RD110 Mitsu front locker he swapped it out.. I believe someone here has the original Detroit Lloyd got from the Aussies.

I was mistaken. I was under the impression that the SWB ended with the Raider in 89. I spoke with Lloyd and was going to go see him today, but other obligations came up. His Montero is pretty much exactly what I want to do to mine, so his would save me a ton of cash in the long run, but also I would lose the experience of doing it myself.
