Roof Rack Rebuild / Basic Welding & Fabrication
มุมมอง 2.4K2 ปีที่แล้ว
With many people interested in learning to weld or work with metal, I thought I would show some basic welding and rudimentary fabrication on this roof rack. This video shows my step by step process from start to finish. The only tools used were a 4 1/2 inch angle grinder, a drill and a small MIG / FCAW welder. Why?: When I bought my Montero, the rack on it was poorly built and poorly designed f...

Montero Coil Spring Air Bag Install
มุมมอง 2.1K2 ปีที่แล้ว
This video documents a step by step install of air bags into the rear coil springs of a 1999 Mitsubishi Montero. These air bags are not being installed for additional lift, but to provide extra load carrying support when needed. This is not a repair or even a necessary modification for most Monteros or SUVs, but instead an extra accessory to help stability when hauling heavy loads.

มุมมอง 25K2 ปีที่แล้ว
This in depth video shows all steps involved (including modifications & workarounds) for installation of a weld in winch plate from Adventure Driven Design and an X-Bull 13,000# winch. Installation is on a 1999 Mitsubishi Montero.
Dis you end up selling it?
Did you end up selling it? I remember seeing it on marketplace, then it was gone. Such a beautiful rig.
Can it re build ir repair?
It can be , but a new one isn’t expensive
Where did you buy the winch mount?
Adventure Driven Design fabs and sells this winch plate............see below for link.........
I like that rack
@inzmountains how do you like this montero. I’ve been thinking about getting one. I just don’t know how well I’d like it for long drives. Since you have so much low end torque. Can you travel 85mph comfortably with it?
I was thinking a roll pin might do the trick! I'm going to check mine tomorrow see if I get lucky and it's just as simple as this. I'm crossing my fingers it won't be a heater core replacement.
Not gonna lie the whole video is annoying. You didn’t show the product box not once
Well… if I was featuring a product or doing a product review, that would have been important to include. However, this was not a video to feature a product, but to show what I did to upgrade my vehicle. A simple search on the internet (like I did) will show you about a dozen different options for lights and you select the ones you like best. Thank you for your positive and encouraging input.
Ya know when I saw the time lapse is when I 1st THOUGHT this guy is clever and a great instructor. Demonstrates in amazingly detail the spots to inspect mark for dissasembly, possible hang-ups. Sharing his thought process/reasoning is HIGH VALUE, shared from his experience & busted knuckles, everything. Thought all that, much love. THEN I read the disclaimer- Dude, WTF. 👏💪👏 5 stars. This guy just go'head & just slip into IMPERVIOUS mode WHILE instructing a brand new technique! For the Internet at large?!? Hmmmm 🤔😏🤯... (I'm not authorized to call him a saint😇) I am very sure, and got the creds to declare- the dude is a guru. Enlightened master. BadMuthaForever, whatever your term is, & ect. Thanks for demonstrating "knowing the way broadly, and to see it in all things". That vid-jee-yo wuz the BOMB, SUN!!! (Helped a bunch- found more heater bolts. still working on how to remove the heater core w/o taking off the entire top dash.
👍🙋♂️ My Montero is 2000 has 300k and run like new. Nice video bro..
I love the 2nd gen. Montero but with how easy the frame and body rusts on would line x the entire body and undercoat the frame with military grade cosmoline rust protection.
Would you happen to know the instagrams of the Grey Gen 2.5 and Green/Grey Gen 2.5 Monteros; want to see more of their builds! Awesome rigs all around.
What is the steering ratio like for these Gen 2.5 Monteros? It sounds like the designers might have reduced the ratio a little bit between the Gen 2 years and the Gen 2.5s but I can't confirm that. If you watch the Motorweek debut of the 1992 Montero SR, the driver input looks insane; especially during the cone maneuverability test. If you've driven 3rd gen 4runners or 1st gen Tacoma's how would you say the steering input compares because they nail that ratio perfectly in my opinion.
Good job!...
I doubt you're even active anymore, but in the case you are- my heat works but cold air blows through the entire dash and vents at highway speeds in the winter basically overpowering the heat.. any chance theres an easy way to check the recirc door without removing the dash for the 7th time? 😅
What tire and lift size are you running?
That's awesome! I think I am gonna make mine instead of spending a bunch of money! I live in Colorado also right next lory state park by horsetooth reservoir.
Hey, it installed pretty simple, but seems to be that the cooler for trans is kinda higher, so did you do body lift on it or no? Thanks
I have 1.75” body lift so that gave me more room to work with.
@@inzmountains8067 OHH, now that makes sense, does a body lift really need for winch installation? I'm not a big fan of body lifts and lowering the radiator, maybe I could just make different holes when will be installing the winch or there is a different solution?
I nave changed but read max 3\4 and zero when is half tank 😅
How are you are spring airbags holding up? I’m thinking about adding them to my GEN one.
They are holding up well. I’ve only had to add air once from normal leak down over a few months. Honestly, they maintain pressure a lot better than I thought they would for a long duration of time.
@@inzmountains8067 Thank you very much for getting back to me so quickly….ordering them from Amazon as we text,ThankYou again.
Amazing! What is the tire size?
305/70/17 Approximately 34 inch diameter.
Hola desde España,muy bueno el video,yo tengo en mi Mitsubishi el mismo problema,intentaré fijarme de ti,un saludo.
Very good and well done video. Excellent one handed camerawork!
like your set up! What is the height of your spacer for bodylift? thanks
Brian, I have the same issue that I want to fix before summer is out. I looked up the the part number for the temp cable. It's MB813353. it's pretty cheap if it's actually available in the States. I just ordered one, so we'll see. How difficult do you think it'll be to replace the whole cable? It's hard to see how it's attached to the blend door side. If it's difficult I bought a roll pin assortment from HF so i can fix your way. Thanks for the video! It gave me confidence to finally get around to fixing this.
Hi Mike, I’m glad the video was some help. I do believe you’ll have to take a bit more of the dash apart to replace the entire cable because it is fairly hard to reach at the blend door as opposed to the temporary repair I did at the control knob. I suppose with some long reach, needle nose pliers or something like that it may be easier, but still a fairly tight area to work in. Good luck on your fix. Love the rig by the way.
More montero content pls
Great video, has a similar problem, ordered the parts already.
Is this the airlift 60747 1000 series .?
Yes, that is the correct part number and airbag series I used.
Thank you very much !
I think I'm having the same issue. Now I know what to look for. Thanks!
Where did you get that unit
I ordered from Mitsubishipartswarehouse.com
Do you have any idea how many people fainted when you drilled into the roof? 😂🤣😂🤣 I just drilled 9 holes in an Explored for emergency lights and antennas. Great work! ♦️♦️♦️💪
I am not a big fan of making irreversible body modifications, but I also know if I ever needed to get rid of the hole, there are plenty of options to plug the hole and keep it weatherproof. I definitely wouldn’t tell anyone to start drilling holes in their roof unless they had the right pieces and parts to accomplish their task.
nice this is what ive been wondering about to go through this with my gen3
Thanks for another great instructional video
I wish I found this video before I did all the work to figure out mine haha In Alaska, just leaving it on heat because I couldnt really figure out a way to get rigidity but your creativity probably saved me. Thanks!
It’s not the perfect solution, but works in a pinch until a whole new cable can be installed.
Need a split roller pin that you could open up and re-crimp or a Dremel to cut that groove might be a little easier
That would have been easier… Just using what I had on hand at the time. Nearest auto parts store or hardware store is 45 minutes away.
Thank
I'm actually about to tackle something similar. the heat control won't go past a certain point and I'm certain the either the blend door actuator is sticking/stuck or the cable is damaged. I wonder how hard it is to route the cable to the correct snap locations without taking apart the dash.
There’s not a lot of room to reroute cables as they are all a very specific length with specific mount locations. To do much reworking, it is likely more of the dash will have to be taken apart.
I would like to install one but I haven't yet found one that looks stock, I'm looking for a solution that allows me to keep the stock skid plate and just make a hole in the small plastic grill that you took off. Nevertheless, great work, great video and thank you for taking the time to do this!!
Cool roof rack. What brand/type? Thx for the video!
It’s a custom roof rack put on by the previous owner before I bought my vehicle. I’ve been doing several repairs and I’m currently in the middle of completely reinforcing/rebuilding it to make it stronger.
@@inzmountains8067 very nice
@@inzmountains8067 do you know any information about the brand of those rain gutter mounts?
@@macdrew77 These are Surco mounts. Usually they can be found on amazon. I forget the exact part #.
Not at all you my friend are very resourceful I’m shopping some of those websites dimension now for Mitsubishi forums
Thank you very much very informational and I believe you gonna pack a punch with all the newbies out there
did you just call me a noobie? :-)
Your wheels are nice? I like the wheels on the Montero sport as well, what are those?
My wheels are Pro Comp Alloys, 17 x 9. I’m not sure what brand wheels are on the sport. I think he got some aftermarket alloys that were on a Chevy truck.
@@inzmountains8067 for your procomps did you have to get the centers rebored for the larger center bore?
I bought these wheels used from a guy that had them mounted on a Nissan pickup. The center bore was exactly the same as the Montero Center bore so I did not need to modify anything.
Have you 33/12.50r15 tyres?
Tires are 305/70/17 Approximately 34 inches.
@@inzmountains8067 thks👍
Plop this bad boys in the over to warm them up or just undo the shock and drop the spring. I'm sure they were like bending aluminum in that cold. Lol. Good stuff!
Yes, about halfway through I was sure that pulling the coil spring would have been easier. Oh well... live and learn.
Thank you for these awesome Montero videos.
Great video, I'm getting hot air from drivers side vent, cool air from all the others, so ill be digging into mine soon.
Have the exact same issue, but havent gotten into it yet. Did you have any luck?
@@jeremiahkellam9458 used a vacuum kit to bleed the cooling system, then blasted the heat and revved up the engine while topping off the coolant to get any remaining air bubbles out. Heat works great now, but it won't switch to cool air LOL
look at all those beautiful Gen 2.5s
How do you like the Montero?
I like it better than most other 4x4s I’ve owned. It’s my second Montero and I don’t plan on getting rid of it anytime soon,
@@inzmountains8067 what year do you recommend?
@@AMG43ramirez Any mid to late 1990s Montero is fairly capable. The SR models or Winter package models have a factory locker and 3.5 liter engine and are typically more desirable than the other models.
Можно было уложить в 15 минут видео. Слишком много лишних слов. За паджеро респект💪👍👍👍
Can you put a link for the Amazon lights you installed? Thanks!
I found these on amazon, but later found some a little cheaper on eBay so I ended up buying from Ebay. www.ebay.com/itm/174981485239
