Hey guys, excited to share our second build!
Our base is a 1999 Mitsubishi Montero 3.5L

The goal: To build a budget overland vehicle just as capable as any other rig out there. The 99 - 2000 Montero with the cold weather package comes with a center and rear locker from factory!

We already have some awesome gear ordered, excited to get this thing going.

I've always had a fondness for Monteros, I'm excited to see where this goes. May I ask what you have on order?

Looking forward to seeing what you do with that Montero. How about some specs? Hp, torque? Locker? I don't know much about that generation of Montero, so I'm just curious. Thanks!

Does it have a rear locker? Any particular features unique to the Montero? I liked the inclinometer on the center stack, along with what, a volt meter and another guage? I think different years or trim levels had some variation in that little guage pod.

I love this thing. I have been following y’all on insta as well. I have been in the market for a Montero for about a year. Yours has given me further motivation to track one down and be less picky!

Talk to me about your winch and skid plate setup? Is that a one off fab piece or something you can purchase from an company?
