Hey everyone, I am new here so I'm just introducing myself. My name is Mike, I'm from North Jersey, I drive a 1990 Mighty Max 4X4 with the 3.0 and a 5 speed. I bought the truck a few months ago needing a bunch of work, both mechanically and cosmetically. I am concentrating on mechanical this year, csmetic will be next years project. I am not new to the Mitsu truck world, I've had an 87 convertible (4cyl, 5 speed) a 89 that was turned in to a show truck (also 4cyl, 5 speed) I drive a Mitsu car as a weekend car now and I have the truck now too. I'm having fun working on it and it's in pretty good rolling shape now and hopefully it will stay that way for some time.
Hope I can help as much as being helped

P.S. Can anybody tell me how to add a pic to a post?, I already have a photobucket account. Thanks

let's see if this works.....

Nice ride glad to see another guy rocking the 6g72, I got 2 of em but one I'm pretty certain the ECU crapped out on but I'm hopin to get some switchin done today and find out

And whats wrong w/ it cosmetically? Got any pics of the old trucks and weekend car?

Thanks for the welcome everybody. The truck is in good shape mechanically now, it had been abused and ignored for all of it's lfe so it needed alot of work ( but....but, I can SAVE it !! *justification to girlfriend*) Cosmetically, the only stock panels that are staying are the cab itself, and the bed itself, every other panel is rusted or dented. Originally bought it to use as a winter beater, but I'm neurotic and it has turned into a project truck. The guy I bought it from already had the ECU redone and it has a lifetime warranty so I hope it makes it, I heard they're a problem. The truck is keeping this safe....


I'm gonna be 40 at the end of the year and have been playing with cars since I was little. I've had a few interesting projects, my 89 Mitsu was a biggie. I bought it new...

only picture I have left of it. I had an 86 I turned into a convertible years back, but the kid wrecked it and I never got a picture. I'm not an automotive idiot, so hopefully I can offer help at some point
