1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

Ah @BartMaster1234 survived. Cool.

I should probably do the lower ball joints on the #ranchtruck. Campus police would try and make me pay towing fees .90 miles away from my driveway.

 

I’m just so grateful it didn’t happen on the interstate, or the 7 mile bridge I have to take home with no shoulder.

 

Campus? How old are you? I thought you were in your 30s

 

He’s my age.

Probably closer to @JKO1998 though.

 

PG&E is shutting power off to 800,000 people this week. This is going to be fun.

 

lol. you really have been busy. been the talk of the bay for the last couple of days. Should've seen your costco gas station tonight. pointless to try. ended up filling up the daily over at that quickie mart down the road from costco.

 

I drove past in the tow truck on the way home. There was a line into the parking lot long after they closed.

My buddy is due for a shift as station attendant there this weekend. I wish him the best.

 

tonight was just the hype. For those areas that are impacted and yeah, they may expand it so we might see it as well, wait for ppl to be without for a couple of days. shit going to get weird.

 

So they're just cutting people's power in those brown areas? For what? Making improvements? Routine maintenance?

 

And have you been watching our beloved 9ers??!! Oh man do I get giddy I'm one of the wackos that loves all the advance stats and metrics and stuff and we look goooooooood right now okay back to topic

 

Lolol

 

Pleasanton Police Department said, on Facebook:

“PG&E is anticipating widespread, strong and dry winds this week. Starting Wednesday, they are considering turning off power for safety to parts of California, including the Bay Area. So here are a few things you can do to help get through a power shutdown:
• If you come home and everything is dark and nothing works, then yes, you are experiencing a power shutdown. Remain calm. Use your cell phone light to search frantically for the one flashlight you think you have in the house. It will be dead of course. Search for batteries. You will need four but only find three.
• Wish you had charged your cell phone. Plug your phone into the charger but then say to yourself, “duh the power is out.”
• Charge up those portable phone chargers tonight. However, keep in mind, should your teen’s phone run out of battery it could be a good thing. Watching them go through Tik-Tok or Instagram withdrawals could be good entertainment. Heck, it could even put them dangerously close to having to read a book by flashlight or doing something creative.
• Please do not call 911 and ask when the power will come back on. Our dispatchers are very good but they cannot see into the future. They will tell you they do not know and then disconnect so they can answer the other hundred calls from people asking about the power being out.
• Keep your freezer and refrigerator doors closed to keep food from spoiling. If you have teenagers this may be difficult so speak loudly but slowly to them so they understand. You may need to hang a sign on the doors as well. Use big letters.
• Use food supplies that do not require refrigeration. We think potato chips, Twinkies, Oreos, and peanut butter might be a good start! Okay, maybe throw an apple or an avocado in there, too.
• You will need a plan to keep medicines refrigerated or power-dependent medical devices working.
• PG&E suggests you turn off or disconnect appliances, equipment or electronics. Power may return with momentary “surges” or “spikes” that may cause damage.
• DO NOT use generators, camp stoves, or charcoal grills indoors. Carbon monoxide fumes can be deadly. Moreover, never use a gas stove top or oven to heat your home. Do what your mom used to tell you to do: Put on a sweater.
• Check on your neighbors. Even the one whose dog barks all night. And the other one who always parks in front of your house.“

 

Now you're just being funny lmao but really how much of that was from a real post from them?

 

And how did you BS that, that quick?!? That's scary how good of a BSer you are?!

 

I mark my LBJ bolts with a paint pen like the factory. Every oil change I give them a quick check for movement.

 

Also my LCA adjusment cams.

 

I am totally serious, the Pleasanton, California Police Department posted those exact words on Facebook.

 

Hahahaha I would've never believed you as I didn't think those were things Californians were allowed to be funny about

 

You made a good choice. Screw parking lot repairs.

Also, pretty sure youre gonna make all of us replace our bolts so thanks for that bill. I undid mine when I did my lift and just reused em.

Is 90080-10066 the right bolt pn?
