1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

Thanks man, I'll do my best to take some pictures of the high country.

This trip is a little more sentimental because a bunch of us are coming together to do a memorial run for and spread the ashes of a wheeling buddy who died in an accident working on his Jeep.

 

Every Thai restaurant I've been to has only had a couple beer options and they taste like budlight

 

Holy shit... I heard about that on the news. That’s not the guy from Nevada is it? They were saying it was caused from the big Earthquake in neighboring Los Angeles County.

Sorry for your loss.

 

I was just wondering about that too. Pretty sad story

 

Did you X-ray and put them through a bend test?

 

Never sell.

 

Woke up to pouring rain this morning...thought I was dreaming. Been triple digits and blindly sunny all week. Crazy thunderstorm I guess except it's been going on for over an hour, usually they come and go really fast

 

Nah, it happened last fall. His wife has been planning the trip since around Thanksgiving but all of the high country trails have been closed due to snow, and some still are.

 

Buddy came over unprompted and helped me wrap up all the loose ends on the truck...he was also nice enough to clean all of my windows and vacuum it out while I was working on stuff.

Packing time

 

Do all the above

 

Those are neat cause they're FWD, the rear wheels just hold load

 

WEll that just seems pointless

 

Will this work for the 3.4 v6 auto transmisson? I thought it called for dex III

 

Damn, Ed Pink is back up to his old tricks. Reviving production of the IMSA GTP VG30. This is an engine that was specially cast from aluminum (as opposed to the stock VG30 which is cast iron) and adapted to run an Electromotive engine control system from the late 80s early 90s for racing in IMSA cars at places like Laguna Seca. Pretty much entirely custom minus the crankshaft and head design (which was modified to run orings instead of head gaskets so it could push near 40psi).















Stock VG30E for Comparison

 

@Running Man so is this dex 4 some new stuff ?

 

Okay do you guys recommend using gasket maker for the pan or buying a Toyota gasket ?

 

Fluid change. Drop the pan change the filter screen.

 

These goddamn delicious food trucks outside work every day are gonna make me go broke

Not really but I'm spending 3x as much on lunch lately
