Default Changing Spark Plugs!

What items are required to replace the spark plugs for a 02,Montero Sport, 3.5?
So far I have the Iridium Plugs.
Do I need a gasket kit? If yes what part #?

Look no further than the link below - it's great. Mark the bolts with a Sharpie and keep a sketch as you go. A step stool and trouble light are also a big help.

I think you'll also want to replace the spark plug wire loom while you can. I got one from an on-line Mitsu parts search. Not sure why you wou;ld need to replace the valve cover gaskets unless you have leaks there. Most of the oil leaksmentionedon this forumcome from the rear cam plug o-rings, which can be fixed independently of the spark plug project.

By the way, Igot my intake manifold gasked from NAPA and it worked fine.
