Pennyman1, Your right on. I remember Kane (mightyd50) had spoken a lot about this. The suspension will bolt up, the control arms are 1 inch longer, which is good thing to get a smoother ride, and a tad more travel. If I was going to do this (And I am) I'd go with the whole. And if you find a 1st gen Montero, check to see if has a rear LSD. If so, snag it too!
