Does anybody know when a timing chain from a 2001 Grand Vitara should be replaced milage wise?

The J-series engines have a "lifetime" cam-chain, it's not required to be replaced at a specific mileage. Just listen to it and if it sounds noticeably rattly and sloppy when the engine is warm, then it's time for attention.
