1st Gen. Lunch Table - General Discussion

For some reason I pictured a huge belt driven mad max type blower being worked on in the parking lot, on a lunch break.

 

That's 100% what I meant.

 

Are we playing Where's Waldo?

 

anyone ever look at this website? Just found it looking for a “best gen” sticker.

That ball joint sticker is hilarious but dammit they stole an idea I had with those saint stickers.

 

No, so thanks for the link.

 

Wonder where that truck is at these days. Seems like sometimes the first bunch of new vehicles produced are analyzed then crushed or something.

 

Quite the connoisseur, and you’ve never tried ‘smack yo mamma in the mouth’?

I believe you are correct. As we know, the first Tundra was sold as a 2000, and the earliest manufacturing date that I’ve heard of is 6/99. I’d imagine it takes at least a year of testing and adjustments before public release. Just my uneducated guess tho.

 

Bookmarked.

Lol. That's my beverage/hotsauce fridge. I had to buy a mini fridge since the regular one in this house is crap.

 

Trying to find a left (drivers) OEM fender flare for my 2005 Tundra double cab SR5 (white). I can find them on eBay but I was looking at new ones too. The only part number I can find:

• SKU:75872-0C902
• Positions:Left
• Other Names:Molding Front Fender
• Description:
  Without double cab, primed.
  

It says without double cab but I can’t see a difference between the access and DC flares am I missing something? I thought the 2000-2006 Tundra and 2005-2007 sequoia front fender flares are the same?
Anyone know if that part number is for a DC as well or is there a different part number I’m not finding?
Thanks in advance.

 

You want 756120C901 DC fenders are shaped different than the other trucks.

Flares are 01-07 Sequoia and 04-06 Tundra DC

 

No, but thanks for posting! I love the bottom of the homepage:

Just remember: OEM Lower Ball Joints, Cold Air Intakes and Throttle Body Spacers Don’t Create HP, and in St. Geoff we Trust.

Nope, and my Google Fu is coming up short. Got a link to what you're talking about?

Glasses, maybe?

There's a huge difference. I hate the DC flares, makes them look like a 2000s era Ford Explorer or Sport Trac or something

 

It would be funny to buy some and frame slap them on trucks with aftermarket LBJs.

 

I just ordered an Eastwood 7x12 mini lathe and I'm so freaking excited.

 

helpful

 

Honest question here: With First Gens, which one is the Double Cab? I have a Turd Gen, so my brain would think the smaller one was, but somewhere in my time on the forum I got the impression that First Gens were labeled differently. Can I get a clarification on First Gen cab sizes (with side view pics if possible)?

 

Double cabs are the ones with full size rear doors. Access cabs have the half rear doors

 

Ok, so sizes from smallest to largest in 1GT would be Regular Cab, Access Cab, and then Double Cab, right?

 

Ya

 

Thank you.

 

technically.. but the access and reg cabs are the same length. just different cabs/beds so physically theyre the same... double cabs are the monsters,

 

Well, if we are tracking bed size, RC is the winner…

 

Guy in shipping/receiving is putting in his two weeks Monday. Going to another factory that I applied at.

I've talked to him since he started, and we have become good work buddies. Asked if he would put in a good word for me, and personally hand deliver a resume for me to the manager there.

Unsure if it's the right move, but it feels right. Feels like a direction to go.

 

It can't hurt, still in the auto industry?
Best of luck to ya in the search.

 

Yes, still auto industry. Thanks.

 

I’ve gotta admit it’s been a bunch of years since I had it, and I bought it just because of the name, but I remember it being surprisingly good…. and hot. I went lookin for ya and found it, and learned quite a bit about it myself. Quick overview; It is called ‘Smack Yo Mama’, (not in the mouth), Louisiana style Cajun based flavors and spices, and alot of them. Blended dry spices seem to be their specialty. I just ordered some.

Dunno - thinking a young man should be trying to get into one of the new Tesla factories. I think in your case that would mean a move to TX, but that's not necessarily a bad thing for you now.

 

@Tundra2 do it. I plan to buy a house when the market is favorable and need a roomate lol
