    Light Truck (LT) tires on your Gen 3

    As far as gas mileage goes I haven't noticed much of a difference. Of course the monty doesn't get great mileage anyway. With acceleration it improved slightly but that is because I went from an E rated Hankook Dynapro to the D rated Yokohama. Glad you have had luck with the Hankook's...

    Light Truck (LT) tires on your Gen 3

    I run the Yokohama Geolandar ATS's in 265/75/16 on my 2001. Love them so far with about 10000 on them. They are load range D and ride great. Never have liked P rated tires on anything I take off road.

    Montero '01 Timing Belt: DIY Job?

    Just had mine done at 140000. Wish I would have done it myself as it was not cheap, I just didnt have the time before a moab trip. Make sure you do the water pump while you are in there. Like others have said, not rocket science just be meticulous and take your time.

    4 Low
