1st Gen. Lunch Table - General Discussion

That was the one time your dad didnt smack it and say "that ain't going anywhere."

 

I see what you did there.

 

Lol my dad used to call his Civic his "Honda truck" because he used to do that kinda shit, before he traded it for his Tacoma.

 

Ivehad my gentex for at least a year now. I still need to wire it. Hell I need to wire my ditch lights too. I hate wiring.

 

Pics?

 

Hey, you need to trim the backing plate for WL calipers upgrade.

 

This one is quite a bit older IIRC. I remember seeing it a year or two ago.

 

Should be able to have a SPDT switch. Just reverse what there is here so the light would go to BAT, then each power source to different loads.

 

Got a 6 wire switch, i can run the ambers as brake lights at night or the main light & caps during the day.

the bonus would be unplugging the trailer plug & jumping it to aux power. So theres no backfeeding and i dont have to run any other lights.



and all my connectors are way too big for any holes.

 

28.5’ plank on my old 1980 Civic.
Somewhere i have a pic of 16” 2x6’s, 4x12’ sheets of drywall, and a few bales of insulation hanging out the back hatch. The car was rad for hauling construction materials. Full sheets of 4x8 plywood could juuuuuust fit inside the rear hatch. I could physically fit about a max of 10 sheets. Then any other empty voids i could fill with 2x’s, concrete. I once picked up a dually Dana 70 and D44 (by myself) and stuffed them at the same time inside the back hatch far enough to close the door.

 

Inspected & certified.

 

@Mr.bee I’d do a pair of relays.

30 to your lights
87a to 4 pin stop plus turn
87 to fused constant power
Push button switch controls the coil. Ignition or battery (if you want them on without the key) I’d do ignition.

no risk of backfeed and a clean switch (though not sure you have blanks or can fit a nice switch somewhere or a Garmin/auxbeam/switchpros

 

Being handy. Blessing or curse? More automotive fun today. Daughter’s 2015 Jeep Cherokee oil cooler has been leaking, swapping O rings today. Hope that fixes it. After the 6.2 letdown, I need a win here people.

 

Agree. They could have it tuck into the cab & hide the 'tuck' with a back seat that doesn't fold up. They could have the ramps accordian on themselves. They could slide on a track along the frame rails - like a barn door slides on a track. You could have a steel panel that rolls up like those security doors stores have in the cities. Bend one way it rolls up, bend the other way & it's inflexible. I'm no engineer, but it shouldn't be that hard to figure out.

 

2 little hooks lock it to the bed floor. unhook them & it drops down slightly & the whole thing slides into a hole, sits between the frame rails under the floor.

 

Oh yeah I've seen those before. I thought you were talking about something else. Something electronic perhaps

 

Seasoning my smoker. I never should have bought this thermometer. It reads too high. I couldn’t remember what I used the last time, but it only read to 400. I’ve already ordered a new one. It’ll be here tomorrow.

 

I’m either experiencing a Tundras.com fluke or one of the mods is hinting me to get another Tundra.

Every time I hit on this thread, I get pushed to a tag on my name. Weird.

 

Happy Pi Day everyone!

 

why no laser thermometer?

 

the perfect day to get around to doing the things you've been putting off.

 

It's international steak and blowjob day, and you're over here talkin about Pi...


yes I stole that from @bmf4069

 

That only counts if you had to do something for vday. Its grilled chicken & baked potato day here.

 

Sometimes you don’t get steak and an BJ unless you eat PIe.

 

Got around to battle with the roses. My rose hedge is once again a series of rose bushes. Been meaning to get to that 10 years now.

 

I bought a coke zero for $3.24.
I handed the clerk $5.25.
He handed me $47.
I handed back the two $20's and the $5.
Would've been a nice lick, but I'm not that kind of person.
