Gen 2 Montero Pajero idler arm rebuild
Thought this would be good practice for making and editing videos, I'll get better maybe. Suggestions are appreciated and yes I know I'm choking that hammer, I couldn't find my stubby sledge which is normally what I like to use for steering work. Enjoy.

How to remove bushings from both styles of Gen 2 Montero Upper Control Arms. Also applies to Gen 1 Montero Sport and Gen 4 Mitsubishi L200 Pickup. I know it's terrible.

Thank you
You're welcome!
Hey Toasty, excellent informative vid. I was just about to install the ADD kit into my idler but then stopped when I heard you had bad experiences with the brass bushes. Any particular reason these seem to fail sooner? Is it due to their vibration damping characteristics vs poly/rubber (poly/rubber being better at damping vibrations). I held off on the install since I didn't want to waste my time installing brass of they're going to fail sooner than stock.
You're exactly right, now if you're 90% on the street you'll get good life out of them and the road feel is pretty good. I originally made those parts to help with longevity while running large tires, initially I felt it was the solution but ultimately went to polyurethane on my lighter wheeler and I just used the Duralast part on my more dedicated wheeler. With the Duralast part I could just warranty it out when it bent of became loose, I actually bought two in case I trashed one enough to need a fresh one for the drive home. Now, I'm on the extreme end of the spectrum so your results may not match so just be honest with yourself and your planned usage and select the best part for your application. FWIW I've since axle swapped my big truck so it doesn't have an idle arm any longer.
@@toastyfab123 thanks for the explanation! Yeah it seems that for a road car the brass would be best, so like my Trans Am for example would benefit. But off road vehicles experience much more jarring forces. I think the best course of action for me is to use Poly bushes and a chromoly idler, slap it together and send it!
🤣 lmao good one
You gotta make more videos!!
Yeah, I gotta upload more videos 🤣
Thanx for the video 🙏🏾 i
You're welcome, hope you got something out of it. 👍🏼
Nice video! My gen 1 needs a full suspension re fresh and my idler arm leaks pretty bad for some reason probably need a seal on the gear box or something
Thanks, resealing a gearbox isn't a terrible job, just make sure it's not a worn out box before putting in the effort.
Nice one! You AZ guys dont mess around with boring colors! Bout to put an ADD kit in the old Pajero next week so couldnt be better timing for the vid. We'll see how those brass bushings hold up! Looking forward to the next vid!
Awesome! Hopefully this video helps 👍🏼
Gee thanks, another item that needs maintenance on the Montero 🤦🏽♂️ lol But for real, great video man! Gonna have to definitely look into rebuilding mine!
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it.
Great video, only suggestion would be to have a camera looking over your shoulder or looking down from above so its a little easier to see what your doing. Camera was a little far away to see any detail. Looking forward to more videos as you are a legend in t&e Montero world..
Good idea. I'll try that next! 👍🏼
First video on your channel I have seen, Nice job Toasty.
Glad you liked it! Means a lot coming from you! I'll get better, I wanted to start with something easy because I think starting was the hardest part. Now I can learn to actually edit and shoot properly.
Awesome video! My favorite part was the breakdown and disassembly of that kingpin, i would have never been confident do that myself blindly, thanks again toasty!
Glad you enjoyed it.
Great video! My ADD rebuild kit has been collecting dust on my shelf. Might actually get around to swapping the guts now :D
Yeah! Smoothness is in your future.
Thanks for the video. My favorite part is that you have air tools in your house! Lol. Keep up the good work. I don’t know what I’m supposed to say to win but I really want that pink assembly. 🙏🤞
Like, comment and subscribe. I'll randomly pull someone and maybe they'll get to pick the color and MAYBE they'll get some extra loot. 👍🏼
Great video. Thanks for sharing.
The Montero community truly is the best, most helpful, no drama automotive community out there. Great job, Toasty!
Fantastic! Subscribed and following!
Thanks for this video guys. How do you remove de front upper control arm, in the driver side? I have tried to do it, but after remove the 2 bolts the control arm hits the steerin colun, and i canot remove the upper control arm. In the passenger side, does not have problem, just remove 2 bolts. Do you have any ideia?
Draw a line on the steering shaft to mark the spline orientation, then remove the steering shaft. It should pop out then.
So when are we going to see a proper channel introduction. We want to meet the legend face to face, through a screen at least. Waiting for proper intro and first vlog ✌️
I'm going to do a diy video! That's my big plan 😅
@@toastyfab123 intro video, give a little backstory and a quick show n tell of what you’re about
@@fixedandwelded Smart, i should watch some samples and take some notes.
That looked a little challenging... LOL
He's a better driver than i am but having watched it done in the exact same truck, having him spot me AND my sway bar was on a softer setting i made it look easy for once. I'll see if i can get that video.
Bent idler ;D
🤣
Thanks for this video. Struggled with my upper control arm bushings until I saw this video and it makes a lot of sense. I'm guessing you opted for the Siberian bushings with the metal sleeves rather than the ones that re-use the original metal sleeve?
Yes, the original sleeves are often damaged.
@@toastyfab123 Is that your choice for UCA bushings? How long do they last and do they need to be lubed periodically? Basically, what do you recommend? Thanks
@@olegkreydich456 lately I've had a lot of issues with poly bushings basically melting or falling apart. Not sure what's changed, I've tried different brands and same results. I'm not the only one either. 🤷🏼
@@toastyfab123 thank you for that information. What would be some good options now? OEM UCA, aftermarket UCA, bushing options?
Hell yeah 😎. About damn time!!!!!! LoL. Just say No to IFS .
