Expert Answers about Mitsubishi Montero


  • Will SportRack Frontier Semi-Custom Roof Rack # A21002S Fit 1998 Mitsubishi Montero with Naked Roof
  • The SportRack Frontier Semi-Custom Roof Rack # A21002S does not appear on our site among the roof rack options for your 1998 Mitsubishi Montero with Naked Roof because this rack system is not a fit for it. The 50-inch crossbars are too short for the Montero; the shortest bars that will work on your vehicle are 54-inches. The link provided will take you to our main page for all roof rack systems that are compatible with your 1998 Montero with naked roof. A cost-effective option is the...

  • Is Interference Possible with Curt Echo Brake Controller from Other Vehicle with Same Controller
  • Interference like you described would not be possible. The Curt Echo Mobile Trailer Brake Controller # C51180 pairs specifically to your phone via BlueTooth which is very secure and because of this would not accidentally get controlled by someone in a different vehicle with the same controller.

  • Floor Mats for a 1990 Mitsubishi Montero
  • The WeatherTech floor mats, # WTW3GR, are a semi-custom fit option for your 1990 Mitsubishi Montero. They are a nice fit for your car, but not a perfect, custom fit. The picture is not accurate, it is meant to show you the color and not the actual shape of the mats. We do not carry any custom fit mats for your Montero.

  • Trailer Hitch for 2001 Mitsubishi Montero Limited
  • We do indeed offer Class III receiver hitches for the 2001 Mitsubishi Montero and Montero Sport (two distinctly different vehicles). For the 2001 Montero, use the Curt Class # C13800 III hitch. If you'll be towing with the hitch you'll also need a trailer wiring harness like # C55380 a ball mount like # C45010 and # 19260 for a 1-7/8 or # 63845 for a 2 inch trailer ball. For the 2001 Montero Sport, you'd use the Curt Class III, part # 13223. For trailer wiring, use # 119178KIT and the...

  • Trailer Lights Not Working Using Optronics Trailer Light Kit # TL29BK On 1995 Mitsubishi Montero
  • Since you have tested the vehicle side connector and they work correctly, you have eliminated the vehicle side as being the problem. So you will want to check the trailer wiring and the ground connections on the trailer. The Peterson M545 trailer wiring kit you have mentioned uses a wishbone harness like the Optronics Standard Trailer Light Kit # TL29BK that we sell. This means it will have 5 wires coming out of the back of the 4-pole connector. That might be why it looks like it does...

  • Trailer Lights Dim When Headlights and Turn Signal are Used on 2001 Mitsubishi Montero Using C55380
  • It sounds like you have a ground issue. You will want to start off by checking all of the grounds on your trailer and making sure that they are securely connected with a clean metal-to-metal connection. Rust and sometimes paint can sometimes cause issues with wiring. Checking the ground on your 2001 Mitsubishi Montero is a good idea as well. Since it really sounds like a faulty ground connection, I doubt it is the converter unit in the Curt # C55380, but you can check that too by using...

  • Which Spare Tire Bike Rack Has the Highest Weight Capacity
  • I have attached a list of all our spare tire mounted bike racks for you to look through. Out of these options, the Surco Spare Tire 3 Bike Rack part # BT300 as you mentioned has the highest carrying capacity which is 35 lbs per bike. The rest of the spare tire mounted bike rack options we offer top out at 33 lb per bike.

  • Will Curt Roof Mounted Cargo Basket # C18115, Fit Thule Load Bars On a 1987 Mitsubishi Montero
  • The Curt Roof Mounted Cargo Basket, part # C18115, will fit on Thule crossbars. The mounting hardware on the Curt basket fits on crossbars that are up to 3 inches thick. You will also need to make sure the crossbar spread on your 1987 Mitsubishi Montero is at least 15 inches for the Curt cargo basket to work. I am including a link to the installation instructions on the Curt cargo carrier.

  • Can Curt Trailer Hitch # 13091 Be Mounted Upside Down and Retain the Same Towing Capacity
  • I spoke with my contact at Curt about trailer hitch # 13091. The hitch is designed to fit a 1992 to 2000 Mitsubishi Montero 2 or 4 door (but not Sport models), so if it is being installed on one of those specific vehicles, it cannot be used upside down. However, if you plan to use this trailer hitch for a different application like a custom build, then you can install it upside down and it will maintain the 400 pound tongue weight capacity and 4,000 pound gross trailer weight capacity....

  • Spare Tire Mounted Bike Rack for 2002 Mitsubishi Montero Limited
  • The SportRack 3 Bike Rack SR2813 is not a fit for your 2002 Mitsubishi Montero so the mounting plate may or may not be the only issue. I reached out to my contact at Thule who said the Thule # 753-3532 is not compatible with the Sportrack # SR2813. They make both parts and purposefully make sure they are not compatible so warranties will not cover interchanging parts. I recommend returning the bike carrier for one confirmed to fit your vehicle and I've attached the link to models that...

  • How Do I Install The C13800 Coupler If The Tongue Only Has One Hole
  • Hello Anibal. The Trailer Coupler # C13800 does require 2 bolts for mounting to the tongue. If your trailer only has 1 bolt hole, a second hole will need to be drilled. The mounting holes need to be 3" apart on center. I am not sure how the original coupler was only installed with 1 bolt, but you will definitely need to add a second hole. For hardware I recommend you use the Curt Channel-Mount Coupler Hardware Kit # C25388.

  • Mitsubishi Montero Hitch and Bike Rack Recommendation
  • When we installed the Draw Tite hitch part # 75116 on a 2004 Mitsubishi Montero like yours we found that the distance from the center of the hitch pin hole out to the rear most portion of the spare was 13 inches. That means you will need a bike rack that has at least 13 inches of clearance from it's pin hole to the upright bar of the rack. The # TH934XTR has a distance of 13-1/2 inches from the pin hole to the upright bar of the rack. So it would be very tight, but technically the rack...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch for a 2003 Mitsubishi Montero
  • Yes, we do ship to Canada but the quoted shipping costs does not include all brokerage fees and duties. The correct hitch we have for your 2003 Mitsubishi Montero excluding Sport that I recommend for a boat trailer is the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C13800 which has a Class III rating with a 2" receiver tube opening. There will be no drilling required and the hitch has a black powder coat so you should not have any issues with rust while launching into salt water. Unfortunately,...

  • Will Surco Safari 5.0 Roof Basket Fit Raised Side Rails of 1994 Mitsubishi Montero
  • I verified with Surco that the Safari Rack 5.0 roof baskets do fit the factory raised rails on your 1994 Mitsubishi Montero. It uses included adapters to mount to the rails. The recommended basket is the 60 inch long model, part # SPS5060-1101. If your rails are long enough for the 84 inch model, part # SPS5084-1101, you can use it instead but when I spoke with Surco they weren't very confident it would fit on your Montero. The 60 inch is definite fit though.

  • Bow Stop with 7 Inch Long Span and 4 Inch Wide Base
  • I do have the y-style bow stop in the size you need but it is not offered in the thermal-plasticized rubber (non-marking). Instead you will want to use the Yates Y-Style Bow Stop part # YR7Y44-4 which has a 7" span and 4" base (see photo). The bow stop is made of a similar heavy-dry rubber that does have the tendency to leave marks. Unfortunately, this is the only option we have for you. I have attached a review video on the bow stop for you as well.
