It’s time for a Montero update

It’s been far too long since I’ve done a full update on my 1991 Mitsubishi Montero. Or has it? I don’t know, time doesn’t work correctly anymore. Regardless, we’re doing one today and this is it. Also, in the video, you’ll find a surprise sighting of an upcoming electric truck that happened to be driving on the same trail.

So what do we cover in the video below? The exhaust upgrade, steering wheel swap, idler arm repair, fuel filler hose repair, and overall sentiments and what’s next. Give it a watch!

    I feel your pain. No one likes it when they need to have their head worked on.

    Cool truck. Loved it since you picked it up, and I’m glad you’re not throwing the entire accessories catalogue at it. Keep it simple, keep it retro.

    New front turn signals, maybe? Those look to have suffered from an abundance of California UV.

      These say 1990, but there look like the right ones to me:

    I really enjoy what you have done with the Montero. These are simply good trucks.

    Here’s your truck in a “Intercooler Super Acid”-disguise. Look at that interior and tell me you’re not a changed man after:

    Sorry, just had to share this. Yellow suits the Montero/Galloper though.
