    I use 285-75/16 and it fits fine with my stock suspension. It will be little slower but still daily drivable. Recently also met a guy with OME lift with 35” tire.

    Why does my gen 3 feel like crap on highway?

    “Truck wanders all over” ... this sounds like you need new shocks. Does it happen when just one side goes over a bump or pothole ? I had my right rear shock go bad and whenever I hit bumps on highway, it was scary. Truck wants to fishtail. For other issues, everyone pointed you to some...

    Steering Wheel Wobble a Gen 3 Curse?

    I did have similar shake on my steering wheel after balancing. I was already thinking my bushings were bad but went back to shop again to rebalance. Second time around, they got it right and it got smooth and no shake upto 90mph. I was happy! [emoji2] So start with rebalance and see where it...

    Need Help Gen 3 Steering Rack

    It might be too late to comment but looks like you can just swap the hard line going into the pinion area? Then the line does not cross over like in the old one. It might be assembly error ?

    Jack points for a 2003 Montero

    Welcome! I think you are fine about Diff unless you cracked or dented it. I would use cross member. For me, I cannot lift high enough with my jack so I put piece of wood under crossmember. For stand, FSM shows to put it on pinch weld but I put it on body frame. Works ok for me.

    Regear: 4.3 >>> 4.9 Ever since swapping tires to 33”, monty became little sluggish and suffered a little on uphill. Finally got to time to swap out the diff this past weekend. So far I just replaced the rear one to try out and have been driving in 2wd mode. Stock setup was 4.3 : 1 ratio...

    Where exactly do 285/75/16 rub on Gen 3?

    Hi Ilyas, I have same size but with General Grabber AT tires. Mine clears just fine most of the time. I had slight rub while backing up in the front passenger tire on fender liner (front of tire) but that was due to bumper bent in from previous owner. I pushed the bumper out to align correctly...

    Hard starting - fuel starved?

    May be test the fuel pressure ? You could loan out the tester from parts store usually. Or start by doing regular maintenance / tune up. Cleaning your injectors, checking compression, etc might help you diagnose more. If unsure, I like tackling stuff by doing must do maintenances and see...

    Thanks Jeep-N-Montero. Sorry if there was many discussio before already. May be I searched for wrong keywords. Your input makes me feel better about Lugcentric ones now.
