I wonder will it also have a rear disc brake like the middle line Montero Sport???

Nasa previous post. Drum brakes pa din rear nung 2.5.

Softer ride na lang at matched na halos ng MS.

Still matters so little.
Making the fort 5speed
looking at the gear ratio of the monty, looks like the monty just gained one low gear. It gained a first gear as opposed to the gear ratios of the fort where the low is higher than the low of the monty (low of fort is effectively 2nd on the monty)
its like the fort is always using 2nd as the low gear which it can, given the amount of torque it has at low revs, specially the 3.0v
the d or 4th is almost the same as the 5th of the monty. I believe the 4th of the fort is slightly higher than the 5th of the monty.
i lost my gear ratio tables so cant check now

id like rear disk brakes on the fort though

Teka wilcats, Aug 27th na today. Any confirmation to the rumors?

**wilcats** · August 27th, 2012 05:06 PM

good day

wala pa dumating na 3.0 spec-up saamin. But most likely hindi sya kasama sa engine upgrade. Nakuha na kasi namin yun memo from TMP. so its final I guess. Sa Thailand lang talaga iyong upgrade. baka next year pa natin makita yan upgraded 3.0. haha
