wheel lock - yes

what rig? ... for all I know - you are planning to put these on a Yugo and that would be a tight fit.

New for the '98 they are about $60. If you are interested in the used one I have I'll check the part number tonight to see if it is the correct one for your truck.

P - Metric is Passenger Metric. Originally designed for cars and station wagons. When used on Light Trucks (like Monteros) their load rating is derated. Most new trucks come with them because they are cheaper than an LT rated tire.

Signal stalk was probably replaced sometime in the trucks past with a non OE or not the correct one. What year truck? I might have the correct one for you...

P means Passenger CAR IIRC.

be careful with the "P" tires as not all of them have the 112 load rating min. recommended for the Montero.

E - check

You got it correct in theory, although as factory your speedometer with the factory size tires is probably off by a couple % - I know all mine have been. If you have an Androoid phone, there are many GPS apps to get a more accurate comparison. I use "GPS Test", set your cruise at 60mph and...

Layout & Workmanship! Fabulous!

Maybe I grabbed the wrong seller - but looks like I'll see it in mid December :-( !

Maybe. Early G3 Limiteds were hit or miss with LSD. Most miss.

This one for the GT-Power-RC? http://www.amazon.com/GT-Power-Analyzer-Consumption-Performance/dp/B00C1BZSYO

250K on any vehicle (passenger type) is a LOT of miles...

Chicago metro always comes up in my local CL searches. Gen 3s http://chicago.craigslist.org/chc/cto/5274824829.html http://chicago.craigslist.org/sox/cto/5269414924.html http://chicago.craigslist.org/wcl/cto/5272991101.html

I've had an SR rear wheel flange to wheel flange axle in a basket on my '93. Transported it about 30 miles that way a couple times. That is the extent of heavy things hanging. Dragging - I've towed my Gen 1 with a tow bar about the same distance once also with the '93.

Can't disagree there, but there are many factors with various weightings (not all equal) that apply to gas mileage. My comment was focused on the fact that from my experience, other factors weigh higher than tire width.

There is a rear gearing difference between the 4 speed trucks (LSD) vs. the auto 5 speed. I think it is 4.9 in the 4 speeds and 4.3 in the 5 speed. Your 235/85R16 tires are already as close to 33" as most 33" tires. Maybe 1/2" difference.

Gas mileage is no difference from the stock 265 in my experience, I (we) put 30K miles on the '05 with the 265s and about 20k miles on it with the 235s. Fuel type (real gas vs E10) and driving style makes more of a difference. Don't think even 285s would be outside the fender lines.
