1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

lol i like being short. lifes easier for me. i dont have an issue working on cars because of it. hell i got closed under the hood of a ram 1500... and i was still able to replace the spark plugs on the passenger side

 

Like, you were inside of an engine bay with the hood closed?

 

yes.. this was highschool. ive been the same height and weight since the 7th grade.

 

Damn.

 

Man today sucked.

I thought I was getting my truck but should be tom hopefully, I leave for japan in a couple days.

My brother rushed my mom to the hospital today cause she fainted.

Shes okay right now, but my plan for a good day turned to shit pretty quickly.

 

Sorry to hear that man, hope she's alright

 

Well after a few hours at the ER, this is how it lays ;
She had her hip replaced on the first of the month, so shes been bed bound recovering and healing.

She fainted today

They ruled out Heart Attack, Stroke, Blood clot, so all the major things that could be wrong have been ruled out. Taking her into the doctor tomorrow with her regular GP to see what he has to say.

My personal theory is she didn't eat anything yesterday for some odd reason and is dehydrated, a bag of saline, two meals, and a smoothie with a pedalyte bag she seems okay now, we are back at home.

 

God damnit means I'm going to be moving around on a lay down dolley as we install the LT. Damn midgets

 

lol

 

You mean you'll be laying on your back in bed imagining installing the LT, just like you imagined the 5 ton right?

 

he;ll install LT one day..
well. i'll be doing the install... then the alignment... probably have to make him a burger too.. i imagine hes going to be like Tyler was with Miguel

 

If I open up a shop, first fucking thing I'm getting is an alignment rack. Can start raking in the cash right there. That thing practically prints money if you have a semi competent monkey to man it

 

dude i make a killing from alignments, it is something i'm going to look into even for home

 

i install quite a few lowering kits for friends and friends of friends.. once in a blue moon a lift kit.
I always do the install then take the car to work and align it.. they're happy. i get paid a bit more.. yada yada. my truck gets done sooner

 

If I do that I'll not only give you that Cai but pay in full the 5 lug. Only thing you'll do on your own is the alignment.

 

lol
i'd do the whole thing. its just slapin some control arms and shocks on (and some other little things)

 

how long ago was your frame done? hopefully the camber bolts still move... if they do it'll be quick and easy.. if not.. angle grinder time..

also the steering rack has to be moved out of the way. so if you dont have the poly bushings, that would be the time to do them

 

March-ish I plan on replacing them just to be safe. Also yeah probably should do body mounts and steering bushings shouldn't hurt

 

Jesus Christ this weather that's hitting tonight is making people real whinny and bitchy.

 

Depends on the magnets plus the weight of the rack and cargo you put in it. Possible of the rack scratching but also falling off the truck. You could build something like this to get cargo and no drilling on the cab.
