1st Gen. Lunch Table - General Discussion

Let's trade. I'll mail you mine and you mail me yours. This way you can still clean one up lmao

 

Disappointed in @Bob and crew for no April fool jibber jabber shenanigans'.....but it's not too late.

 

Thanks, ordered a pair for the front/back.

 

I got some recently from eBay.

There's a special place in hell waiting for you

 

Right next to people who stand up as soon as the plane lands. Fuck those folks.

 

We got all but the center steering rack bolt torqued to spec. Got the alignment good enough to drop off at Toy Lex on Friday.
Hopefully I'll have it back before the following Wednesday, so I can take it out to @Sirfive's compound for our spring shenanigans. Otherwise I'll have to take the race truck or wait til the following weekend.

 

Sounds like you have a story to tell.

 

carry zipties to the grocery store. When 2 people are standing side x side, strap those assholes baskets to each other. Metal zip ties.

 

I think I need some of those for my bellows. I broke the biggest plastic zip tie I had with my bare hands, tightening it to the bellow this morning.

 

Rusty ones.

 

April fools. It’s snowing.

 

Been MIA for awhile now! Changing jobs and spending lots of time with the kiddo, the first year really does fly by.. Just finished up a nice camping trip with some great company.




The AC just wasn’t doing it for me, felt like I needed the extra space a double cab would offer.

I ended up finding a guy local to me looking to downsize his double cab, seemed like it was meant to be. Scored a 2004 DC 4x4, couldn’t be more stoked!

 

You have forsaken me my two tone brother.

 

It was bitter sweet watching it leave, loved that two tone look.

 

I can't believe you didn't swap your suspension parts and wheels/tires over

 

I think i’m going to go a different route with this truck. Didn’t enjoy the ride quality that much, felt it was a bit too stiff. Did enjoy the wheels/tires though but so did the other guy lol.

Looking forward to making it my own and watching it change though

 

Winning. Two for two!

 

Well hot damn. I may actually get one this time.

But then again, FedEx, and it's taking a week. Which probably means it's shipping from the left coast. Last time I got a Denso alt from PAC NW specifically, it took more than a week to get here, via FedEx, and arrived destroyed.

​

 

That’s one big ass ez-out to remove a hex plug. I’m surprised you still needed a torch.

 

Not a hex plug, it's a thread repair insert. Somebody impacted a standard bolt in a metric thread. Hence the insert, and then they did it again on the insert. The outer thread is M42, and the inner thread is M16

They're red loctited in

 

Double Doh!

 

Yup. You can fix the insert, but you can't fix stupid, unfortunately.

 

Sounds like a Ron White quote.

 

Looks good man! We're truck twins!

 

I’ve fit 6 jackasses in my ac, and i have front buckets. How much room do you need?

 

Don’t lie, polo had all kinds of room while we romped the cinders, even with the other animals in the back with him
