The 1989 Mitsubishi Montero and 1988 Mitsubishi Pick-Up, both covered in this combined manual, represent iconic examples of Mitsubishi's engineering prowess in the late 1980s. The Montero, a mid-size SUV, was a relatively new entrant to the market, first introduced in 1982 as the "Pajero" in Japan. Its rugged design and capable off-road performance quickly gained popularity globally. The 1989 model year saw several refinements, including a new dashboard, increased interior space, and a more powerful engine option. The Mitsubishi Pick-Up, on the other hand, was a tried and tested workhorse, offering reliable and durable transportation for both personal and commercial use. The 1988 model boasted a robust, ladder-frame chassis, a powerful engine, and a wide range of bed configurations to cater to diverse needs. Shared features across these vehicles included Mitsubishi's renowned four-wheel drive system, offering exceptional traction and maneuverability in challenging terrains.

Under the hood, the Montero offered a range of engine options, including the 2.6-liter 4G63 gasoline engine and the 2.5-liter 4D56 diesel engine, both notorious for their durability and reliability. The Pick-Up also provided a choice between petrol and diesel powerplants, with the 2.0-liter 4G63 and the 2.3-liter 4D55 diesel engine proving popular in various markets. These powerful engines were mated to either a 5-speed manual or a 4-speed automatic transmission, allowing for smooth and responsive driving in diverse conditions. Despite the differences in their intended uses, both the Montero and the Pick-Up shared several design elements, such as the signature Mitsubishi front grille and the overall sturdy build quality. The manuals provided a comprehensive guide to operating and maintaining these vehicles effectively, covering everything from basic maintenance and troubleshooting to detailed repair procedures, ensuring owners could keep their vehicles running smoothly for years to come.
