- Had some tire rubbing on the Montero so took jigsaw (and grinder) to it & trimmed everything nice and neat. Took it to a secret neighborhood offroad course aka a small hill.
Back to regular sign making next episode of Woodworking with the Russian.
Below are some of the tools/doodads you see in the videos that I personally use & have used “Russian Science” to test & verify their worthiness. If you buy stuff - I get a small contribution to the “Lada Fund Project” aka my dream of importing Soviet cars to the US in the name of science (official verbiage below just in case so I get the rubles):
Raptor Liner Kit: amzn.to/3BFwhDI
Motegi MR150 Trailite 16x8 6x139.7 0 offset: amzn.to/2UBjPUJ
Falken Wildpeaks AT3W 265/75R16: amzn.to/2UwKodQ
PlastiDip 4 pack (used for my mirrors, emblems & taillights): amzn.to/3eKvd7o
Rest of my woodworking stuff:
Cheap basic projector: amzn.to/3eJINYV
A bit fancier ViewSonic (I’ve used an older model for 8+ years now): amzn.to/36SrVL9
Mega Pack of Various JIgsaw Blades: amzn.to/3kOfk3M
Basic Jigsaw that I use: amzn.to/2UDqBZZ
“Sergei The Sander”: amzn.to/3ru9sy3
180 grit sandpaper 5 inch discs (that’s pretty much all I use): amzn.to/3y02WRZ
Really simple basic dremel/rotary tool (to make painting lines): amzn.to/36Re1sG

Very nice before and after photos. Great looking rig. Well done 👍
I have a feeling that I also have a "Secret Russian" 4x4 test site in my Neighborhood. They build these stuff everywhere. Hi from Cape Town. You have inspired me to modify my Pajero aka Montero. Thanks for a great video.
appreciate it! It's getting some upgrades right now at my friends - then I'll take it to Secret Test Site II aka behind my friends church - it's a more thorough spot :)
Wow that's impressive looks much better and rougher great job man
Yeah it's come along a step at a time!
Truck is looking nice man, thanks for having us along!
Taking a bit longer right now to get it done but chugging along :) it is really nice to not hear the scrubbing sounds of disappointment anymore!
I do pretty much the same thing called "engineering on the fly". Good job!
I usually say "I know what needs to be done but no idea what I'm doing..." then proceed to figure it out on the fly indeed.
Nice work.
thank you!
Thanks
Man i know it improves its offroad capabilities, but I really love how those parts make it look, especially on mine, which is blue.
Especially the 03-06 don't even need trimming but all the low hanging stuff on 01-02 is like a shovel offroad :)
“Dont have much experience with the grinder other than the app” LOOOOOL had me dying bro love the build! Not many gen 3 content put there
Haha glad someone finally noticed. Yeah I really not a fan of using it since it can get pretty sketchy. I mostly woodwork but got the Montero as a project and the vids for it are far outperforming everything else right now.
And I see you're from 🇵🇷 - funny enough my next vid coming up will be making a dual PR flag - both negative and positive space ones.
@@LeoTheRussian so awesome my man keep the montero content up!! I saw one flag you made in the channel thats so awesome!!! 🇵🇷
I do travel vlogs and explorations around the island in my channel.
asta la vista baby i'll be back
What rims are those size pls advise
What engine is in the montero?
Looks really good 👍 do you have a lift kit?? And what size tires are you running
In the video it was stock. Now it's lifted about 1.5 inches on Lowell's springs and bilstein shocks. 265/75R16 tires
are you running spacers on your wheels and what size is your tires?
These are aftermarket Motegi MR150 in 16x8 at 0 offset so no spacers. 265/75R16 Falken Wildpeaks AT3W are the tires. There's more info and fitment here: th-cam.com/video/kw-iaASxagM/w-d-xo.html
How did you fix the lights for the 4x4 & C/D lock...
CD lock I was trying to engage not in neutral. And front ones occasionally blink but I just move the lever back and forth and they disengage. Engaging 4x4 is never an issue. It's usually a little vacuum thing by the airbox and I have the part just haven't installed it.
Looks great man we should start a Florida Montero club! 😂
There's a Florida Mitsubishi group on FB that's pretty active. Which Montero you got and where in FL?
I haven't had a chance to come out with them lately - seem to always fall on a Saturday I'm either busy or out of town.
@@LeoTheRussian I have a third gen Montero same as yours in silver. Completely stock. Second owners since 2004. It's my father's old truck and my mom has kept it in pristine shape. I will take ownership of it in a few months. It's been a workhorse of a car. I will look for this group. I'm in Venice
@@tonggi in retrospect I do wish I would've got an 03+ and bought 33s for it :) but live and learn. Might sell my wheels and tires and get a new set.
@@LeoTheRussian I don't know enough to tell the difference between an 03+. But I will do the bushings, ironman 4x4 lift kit and do 16s with 33" tires
@@tonggi crude joke stands out from somewhere about the 01-02 vs 03+ monteros - 03+ smooth sides and 01-02 ribbed for more pleasure... But that's the easiest way to tell. Also oval fog lights on earlier ones and round on newer. You get bigger engine at 3.8 vs mine 3.5. Just make sure maintenance especially timing belt is done and 3.8s are known to be grenaded by butterfly valves that folks either take off or loctite them.
Друг,у тебя очень красивый авто
Best looking gen 3 I’ve seen yet!
Actually looks better after cutting them gay flaps.
Please do a quick video of how to do a rear bar like I saw on yours as it seems to be an issue I’ve found on mine with bumper trying to rip off.
Might also bed line lower plastic trim on mine. Check my gen 3 videos.
Thank you! Yours is the diesel in the Australia? Impossible to get in the US.
What rear bar you mean? The one that hangs under the rear bumper seemingly for no reason? I actually bent mine offroading a bit last time. Probably saved me the bumper though
@@LeoTheRussian
Mine has none and needs one maybe yours is custom? Me in New Zealand
@@kingmarz3635 pretty sure it's stock. I have a plastic panel that matches perfectly with it to cover it up. Once I banged it on a rock it shifted back so I had to cut the cover about 1.5 inches to make it fit again :) it's a tad crooked now but no one will notice unless really lookinh
I think both get removed if trailer hitch is put in.
love the rims man. what are they? truck looks great
Thank you! They're Motegi MR150's in 16x8, 0 offset.
@@LeoTheRussian awesome mate. Thanks
What size of wheel can montero fit without lift? 32"? Thanks
33 can be done with some bumper cutting. 32s are easy to fit and minor bumper cutting does help.

Hello my what size your rim and tires thank
16x8 0 offset and 265/75R16
Top secret Russian trail. Lol. Love it.
Sadly it's the only "trail" I've been able to hit for awhile.
I was hoping to see how to strip front bumper :(
Take out grille, bottom skid plate, then headlights and it's just a couple of screws after that. There's a couple behind fender cover inside fender well
чет не понял причем тут секретное русское что-то
