1st Gen. Lunch Table - General Discussion

I've heard that Raptor lights are cool. All the kids are doing it

 

Hell yeah, bro! I want to look like I'm driving a ford too!

 

It is a turf tiger so the graphics seem fitting.
It's original 27hp Kawasaki. Would like more power but it's adequate.

My grandfather has been slowly loosing his mental ability over the last 3 or 4 years. It's getting to what seems to be the end stages but he's still here so we are thankful for that. He still remembers people too so that helps.

 

Oh, i get it now. Fuck yea, squatted with skinny tires i even got a flat brim hat with stickers to mow in. Just missing the white framed glasses. I dont bother with the wife beater tank top, i’m out there holding a beer & running this thing like a vacuum cleaner.

 

Gator Boots, with the pimped out Gucci suit

 

flipflops and khaki short shorts. All the cool kids have tanned knees.

 

Big tymer over here...

 

Daaaaaaamn, those things have got a price tag on them...

 

Next item of business…

 

Yeah the new ones are stupid. My grandparents got theirs when it was 1 year old but still new. Hard to sell the bigger 72 inch deck I guess. It's great for mowing their big field though. Think in 02 they got it for around $9k.

 

You didn't need the nut and cotter pin, it comes with the ball joint when you buy them individually. (it doesn't come in the recall kit)

You should've spent that money on (8) mounting bolts, if you don't already have something new to install.

 

Good info, I’ll give them a call

 

This jive with the ones you suggested?

 

@NickB_01TRD covers the bolt part numbers over here: https://www.tundras.com/threads/spiker-engineering-lower-ball-joint-bolt-test-1st-gen.111746/

This is one of those things that can vary year to year, even within the same year, so if that's the part number Ourisman gave you, then run with it.

 

Anyone recognize this connector? Behind a blank plug. The left one is heated mirrors, right is dash dimmer and factory alarm. Fogs are on the stock with the headlights.

 

Need to see the position. I think it's going to be the rear horizontal slider window, but can't tell from the rear.

 

More goodies from UPS….

 

He did that typical guy delete his thread? I can’t find it now!

 

I didn't know that was an option for ACs in 03. It's this blank switch. I want an electric rear window...

 

Mmmm....semis...I might have been inspired by you and ordered a set of metric wobble head shorties.

 

One should suffice

 

Not sure, EWD will ID the wires, but for trucks with stalk fogs, heated mirrors and slider window were in these positions, and the TVIP/alarm glass break sensor was boxed in red as shown in your pic. Heated mirror is left, slider window is one to the right.


EDIT: This is ONLY true for AC and RC trucks, and only for those with fogs on the stalk!

​

 

That's probably what it was for and has the harness pre-ran as an option. I was surprised to pull those switches down and see a plug sitting in the back of the blank was all. This is how it looks now. Waiting on a few last parts and should have my ditch lights wired up to this fog light switch this weekend.

 

There's not a lot to installing a rear slider. If you can find a donor, you're likely wired from switch to rear. You may need to install a relay to support the motor function, I'm assuming it'll be on the back of, or near, the in-dash fusebox if a relay is required.

 

Cool, if I ever come across one at a jy or someone parting one out online, I'll grab it.

 

I love mine, but now that I have a hard topper, it's practically useless. Other than when I want to make the exhaust sound louder to me in the cab

 

With the cap I use my full limo roll down even more often, mainly when I park to keep the truck cooler/vented. I never use it off-road because it just sucks in dust even with it cracked

 

I think they ARE cool, but I'm a late bloomer

 

but also…..
