Delica Canada | Mitsubishi Van Club

Could the pics from this thread be re-hosted somewhere? I would love to see this process with my eyes instead of imagining it. I am more of a visual guy when it comes to working. I would love manual hubs, and I have to replace a CV boot anyway, so this upgrade seems worthwhile. My van is an 89 so should I order Montero stuff from an 89. Is superwinch the only company that makes manual hubs for the Delica/Montero?

These are some of the options I found when I started looking:

The 15001.43 is the same number as Superwinch. Make sure they have 28 splines some vary even with the correct Cat. #

Ok..so I'm going to do this mod since I'm more than due for new brakes and I have to do my CV joints anyway. I've just spent what feels like years on the NAPA webpage (anyone else here hate their site? Non-user friendly..) and these are the NAPA parts that I came up with using a 1991 Montero for the vehicle search.

Can anyone who has done this mod with NAPA parts confirm that these are the right one's? I'm in Saskatoon right now but I didn't bring van with me, so I'm unable to compare at the store.

Sorry I couldn't just insert a link to the page directly.. for whatever reason that wouldn't work.

Thanks for all the information on this mod...

Question 1
Is there any chance the photos from the original jfarsang post are kicking around? I can't seem to find them?

Question 2:

Did the flex-lines/hoses have to be changed to a different size like they did in this link?:
http://dinoevo.de/brake-upgrade/

or do the Raybestos calipers match up to the stock l300 flex-lines/hoses?

Thanks for your help.

The original hoses are not quite long enough and the hose connections are different. The hoses and connectors that dinoevo used are available @ a good price from Canada Auto supply or through any Lordco @ a premium. You can get hoses made as Golf Cart but the cost is the same or more.

I have now completed this mod using Raybestos for calipers, rotors and pads and the Russell fittings suggested in Dino Evo. All went great and I now have real braking power - as well as new front bearings, seals and a repack.

Looking at attempting this upgrade (dino evo's braided lines as well), however was hoping to see some more pictures on the operation. Has anyone recently done this and had the patience to snap some photos?
Thanks,
Joe

I'm looking to do this as well. Anybody know where we can view the pictorial walk through?
