1st Gen. Lunch Table - General Discussion

But now you're committed to do it anyway?

 

I may just let a professional do it lol. Anyone in the Arlington Tx area I’ll take mechanic recommendations

 

You got this. It’s like baking a cake. Follow the directions, no shortcuts or your cake will go flat and taste terrible. Good luck!!

 

He said "roll with it" not "roll it".

I think he's letting nature take over.

 

What a wild ultrasound picture. It looks like a crow to me.

 

Maaco?
I'm going to respray the T3 next year.
Maybe wrap the 4x4 someday.

 

And label your bolts as you pull them so you don't end up like the other poor suckers who come back here, "Hey do you guys know where this 14mm bolt is supposed to go?!" (It usually ends up being the A/C compressor and/or its bracket.)

Maaco is never the answer. Never, ever.

 

That’s what you do with a shitbox, not a Tundra! Might as well use Krylon spray cans for that quality.

 

Well my 03 is a shit box

 

Do you have a link to that video?

 

Is it this one?

I'm going to try that on the sequoia. I'll post up how it works out.

 

Correct. Why paint it to ruin it on trails?

 

ask that dudes lady if she'll still sell me that trailer for $500. I want it bad.

 

I thought you were selling it? I'd have it detailed before I invested money in painting it. Probably won't see that return on investment.

 

I'm back and forth. My friend offered me $8k for it. So if he actually comes up with the money, I'll sell it.

 

How many miles are on it? That one person was just on here from FL saying they'd pay in the 20s for one.

 

345k. It's in rough shape outside. Paint is fucked. Got a small dent or two. But the interior is immaculate with exception to a tear in the rear passenger seat. Engine runs great, JBA long tube headers, SOS 2/4 lowering kit, all the maintenance has been done. Currently has po420, po430 and po333 (iirc). I have a set of DD injectors that should fix the problem I need to install.
Brand new windshield. New alternator. New OEM grill, original grill included. Grill emblem and bedside decals missing. But for the right price, I could source them both. Would be a waste to do them without first fixing the paint and body and the original grill. The Lexus 18's clean up nice.
Needs a new clockspring.

Like I said it's a bit of a shit box. But I love it.
Probably not for everybody's taste.

 

Miles? Or kilometers?

 

Is it wrong to say a 3rd gen felt gutless compared to a 2nd gen? At least in the first 2-3k rpms i just couldn’t feel the torque like i could on a 5.7L. Could be a completely different story in the higher rpms but they wouldn’t let me drive one for more than 1/2 mile on back roads only.

 

Miles

Wonder if this would fit a Tundra?

 

I got so drunk, I slept for a year.

 

Holy fuck, he's alive! We've missed you @crawlsthroughamoutntainofvirginstofuckatechnician!

 

So how many alerts did you have when you signed back in?

 

That mf'ing skunk is back. Nothing like waking up early because of skunk smell. I'm about to go on a rampage.

 

You gonna shoot it?

 

If I can find it. I may creep around the house after dark. I need some subsonic .22 rounds.
