1st Gen. Lunch Table - General Discussion

he's matured since then. Is involved with this guy, if you recognize him in the video.

he's been in the music scene since the 90's
Deaf as a f'n doornail. You have to look at him and annunciate for him to understand what your saying.

 

Bet he doesn't have hydros on that caddy

 

no sir, but he still rolls 30 in a 45.

 

I’ve checked them and they only have AC gates.

edit. I thought that was carparts.com

cool. I’ll check them out. shifty you are a great resource. We need a tip option here haha

THANKS!

 

Speaking of Audio... I'd love to sound deaden crackie, and figure out a way to make it just a little bit better as far as thump.

No where near that on the project list though...

 

Do you guys just message the Rockauto sponser here to get a current 5% discount code?

I need to order some downstream O2 sensors today.

 

I'm not sure what @shifty` does but I usually just Google it. Retail Me Not is a handy website at times.

5% according to them: 220950029165367055

 

Thanks! It worked. I thought most of those coupon sites were worthless. I guess not.

 

1st gen Taco!

 

not the high hanging unprotected fruit on the tree.

Maybe i'm a little sensitive. Tree branch took my trucks antenna, 3/4 mile from the house is a train bridge that removes a truck roof about 4x/year.
That tank seems like unnecessary excitement waiting to happen.

Which reminds me, I should really see about some sort of cage for the propane tank on the RV.

 

Which begs the question;
Does a house with aluminum siding, aluminum storm doors, aluminum window blinds count as a faraday cage when it's all closed up?

 

Whenever you're ready, tag me in the Crackie thread and we can walk through what you've got today and budgets.

You used to be able to hit the Vendors area, and go into the Rock Auto forum, and it'd be in there. Not so much.

But yeah, RetailMeNot is one of the only coupon sites I ever usually hit. There's a couple others out there you can find via Google, but avoid anything tied to a published Newspaper. I dunno when it started, but a lot of news outlets recently started adding coupon sites and half the coupons are bogus, 2/3 of whatever's left doesn't work.

I can imagine the guys with the Ferds would probably laugh at the little truck between them as they walked back, completely failing to realize they get sodomized by the petroleum industry every time they need to fill up, which is way more often than the Taco owner...

 

The Ford on the right is Driven by a big rig driver, it replaced a Sienna, uses it to tow wife, 4+ kids & a travel trailer.
Dodge on the left is part of a fleet - septic work, heavy landscaping, plowing. LOL - used it to plow a co-worker's car out of the way when the guy parked in front of him & wouldn't move. Great guys running those trucks.

 

Oh dang, that is a Dodge, ain't it?

 

Hell yeah! Preshayt ya!

 

Not entirely, but every little bit helps. Any gaps or holes can leak through emf of certain frequencies so your not completely protected. Also because of electrical resistance a faraday cage doesn’t block 100% of incoming radiation, although that’s minimal in any good conductor.

You also forgot to add the copper roof over having asphalt shingles, so you’re naked there.

 

Depends. Do you still hear the voices?

 

Doing some thinkings on timeliness, and order of things that need to happen...

The audio section of my build will probably be one of the very last things I do to crackie. I need to get doors done up, towing stuff situated the rest of the way, steering rack, have the body gone over, and repaired. Don't want to waste all my time doing dynamat or killmat or whatever and have the body shop come in behind me, and cut out those sections. Ya know?

 

I can tell you my sister's house with only aluminum siding does a great job of blocking cell and wifi signals at least.

this it?

 

Yes but Toyota has them on back order with no idea if/when they will be available. At least one dealership told me that.

 

I would call John Roberts then. No mention of the part being unavailable from them. Maybe get lucky.

 

Sometimes when you need parts you gotta go to the Supreme Court.

 

Ha! John Roberts Toyota is in Manchester, Tennessee (where I bought my 2019). Wonder if this dealership is related.

 

Friday poll: What is the correct number of shakes for a rattle can before use?

 

Depends on the viscosity.

 

Vertical shakes or horizontal

 

5 unless the can specifies

 

The correct answer is 3. Shake it more than 3 times and your playing with it.

 

I'm a constant rattler.
