I'm going to go ahead and start a thread for my build here.

Details:
1997 Mitsubishi Montero NK
SR Winter Package w/ Rear Air Locker.
3.5L 6G74 Engine
V4AW3 Auto Transmission
4.27 Diff Gears Currently
285/70/17 Goodyear Duratracs on Toyota FJ Steel Wheels

I'm currently attending known Mitsubishi quirks here and there, trying to make this as reliable as I can get.

1997 Mitsubishi Montero SR

I just picked this up two days ago. I flew into Salt Lake, and drove it back home to Reno. It's a 1997 Mitsubishi Montero SR, 3.5L 6G74 engine, and the V4AW3 auto trans. The SR models come with a stock rear air locker in the back. The torsion bars are cranked up a little bit to allow for 33...

Oooh, I always wanted one of these.
IIRC the SR trim has a bunch of off-road goodies and a nice DOHC 3.5 V6?

As I understand it yeah the SR has the "winter package" aka the locking rear differential. Some people say that the SR package also has the headlight washers too, though I don't have enough experience to say for sure myself. My SR has the fluid tank for it, and I did see one LS model at the junkyard the other day that didn't.
