1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

For the rear, is this set all I need shackle wise? Or do I need to pick this up? I can't tell the difference.

 

Oh duh. Fanci boi

 

Well if you don't have any bushings you need both. The top link is to the rear, which you definitely need. I don't know if you have front bushings

 

Coilovers are a nice upgrade, I hated my 5100s and Eibachs. My Icons (though not a popular choice on TW for 1st gens) are just great, I love them

 

I don't think I have any bushings at all.

Hold on a second, do I need two of those shackle sets for my truck?

 

no

 

Can you supercharge a diesel?

 

Someday I'll have coil overs haha.. or just say screw it and SAS

 

Of course, that was the original method of making more power on them

 

What do you mean by front bushings? Is that what's used in the front - the second link?

 

Yes, they were supercharged before they were turbo'd

 

Front of the leafs, the side that doesn't mount to a shackle

 

I'm going for Kings or ads in the extended travel lol. Even though I have LT coilover ads's in the box.

 

The rotex style I'm assuming lol that's a lot of force for it to hold in lol

 

Detroits were roots blowers

 

Nope, roots blowers came first

 

I guess I don't know too much about leafsprings. So the front eyes of the sprig are bolted directly to the frame, while the rear uses a shackle which bolts to the frame - correct?

 

Damn that's impressive

 

Centrifugal superchargers like rotrex and procharger are pretty recent inventions in the grand scheme of things

 

Ah I see learned 2 things today lol
