1st Gen. Lunch Table - General Discussion

Maybe a dumb question, but anyone know if there is a break-in period for used diff gears that were pulled from another vehicle and had an LSD added to em?

@assassin10000

I'm picking up the 03 today.

 

I don't see TURBSKI anywhere. Much disappoints.

Anything bigger than 17's on our trucks look lame.

No. Send it.

 

I think Breau is looking for the Vic.

 

I got some gold for you.

 

oh in that case. 18x9.5 100% that extra width will help

 

that immature dude that made a few dupe accounts is going to be so disappointed.

 

Nah, just his old lady.

That's why I was thinking 17x8.5 would be awesome. Get another inch of rubber to go with it.

 

Just quick Q. I don't think it is worth making new thread over.

Need to do drain/fill diff. (Also need to do U-joint ugh)
Was going to put Lucas 80W-90 as per recommendation. I THINK I have LSD (owner's site does not list my car having it but I VAGUELY remember seeing it in my window sticker when I got the truck 18 yrs ago), but I did hear the oil is fine even if I do not have LSD. That said, if I do have LSD, do I need to add any LSD additive or is straight 80W-90 fine?

Thanks.

 

I use Lucas and I don't add anything else. Zero issues.

 

Saw this sick lowered, superchared RCSB 5.7L at Toy Lex, parked next to my turd

 

Didja race him? Tell him you want 3 lengths @ a 45 roll.

 

Nah the owner of the RCSB wasn't there. Juan told me it was supercharged and that it was there for a lift.
I'm not above lifting a 2wd, but I like it lowered.

 

Anyone ever fool with water, water/meth, or meth injection? Or heard of it being used in hot weather or high elevation, as a crutch?

a fogger setup (maybe propane as the pressure) in the plenum would probably chill the air pretty good. Guess i'd need a plastic intake to get max effect.

 

I believe Gadget (Underdog Racing Development) did water+meth on his supercharged 5vz 4runner. I also think he's at elevation.

It lists our trucks.

 

I put the LSD additive in mine when I did it. Guess you’ll know if you need it if you get some chatter afterwards….

 

Who says you can’t Donk and Squat a Tundra?

 

Trucks look good with some aftermarket wheels. CV's need steelies. Or aluminum steelies.

 

Have you seen this?
My eye caught this thumbnail a couple days back and I clicked on it (ventured out of 1stGen). I would completely lose my shit if this was my 70-80k truck.

That thing needs to take a trip to Whistlin's property for a "stress test"
Right now.

 

Just thought I'd throw it out there. I've been watching for TRD Pro wheels and saw https://autoparts.aubreyalexandertoyota.com/ currently has a 25% off sale. Once they're in the cart, you end up with about 41% off MSRP with the original discount plus the 25%. Not bad. I assume it probably works for other parts too.

 

Best part of the parents visiting. Would’ve liked half deer unprocessed but can’t complain about free, and their processor’s smoked sausage is killer.

 

NEVER use additive unless you have signs of chatter.

It’s called “limited slip” for a reason. Having some slip is mandatory for proper function, as is having those clutch packs grab at some point. If you go applying extra additive when it’s unneeded, to treat a symptom that’s not even there, it’s liable to slip when you need it to grab and it’s likely to be at the wrong time, with consequences.

Swap the fluid with Lucas 80w90. Go to a parking lot and run a few utterly slow figure 8s in the parking lot. Park. Back out slowly with the wheels kicked full lock one way, see I’d you feel or hear any chattering, it’s distinct, you should recognize it. Pull in and back out full lock in either direction a few times. If it’s there you should know.

Straight 80w90 worked with my LSD, zero chatter. Mobil1 full synthetic LS had significant chatter. Even after additive.

 

^ this.

 

If the manual says to use GL-5 that means the bottle says "Meets GL-5 specifications" If it says "recommended for" GL-5 then it isn't really GL-5, only a substitute.

 

Got me overthinking things. I used the Mopar oem additive for my Jeep. My tundra was just 75W90 I believe. No additive.

 

No clue why but my mind thought these were bricks of cocaine for a second.

 

Now to figure out where to put it

 

Cocaine of the woods. Aka "Noah's Worst Enemy".
