1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

@Speedytech7 Have you done one of the Z32-TT timing belt jobs? One of my buddies is looking for me to help with his over the holidays.

Looks like a fun job.

 

that is probably too far away to know if there is a hidden gem in the big city of a 1st gen Tacoma specialty shop that would know a thing or two because they have seen a thing or two
but maybe you do?

 

I haven't, but from what I understand once you use some cam holders while it's in TDC it's super easy. @Man of Steel TRD has done it and probably has tips

 

Cool.. We're on the same frequency. I used clamps like this on the 3.4L timing belt job. It sure made it easy to get some slack on the lower belt area.

 

The both are reliable































































At breaking down.

 

The headaches have faded and been joined by a sore throat

Going to have to go to urgent care again because the Dr can't schedule before next week

 

They'll give you a z-pack and you'll be right as rain in a couple days.

 

I hope so.

Guessing I have Strep even though I tested negative last week

 

Shit ass, I have two chips behind my Rearview mirror. Wonder how long they’ve been there

 

same.

 

I've had a dime sized knick in my windshield for a couple years now...hasn't gotten any worse yet thankfully.

 

Have the same. Keep telling myself to deal with it before it develops into something much worse requiring a windshield replacement. Last thing I want to hear is some glass tech telling me I have to remove the dorkel before they'll replace.

How's it going down there in LA homie?

 

The supercharger rabbit hole is real!

 

I have the LCE Conversion line set with the OEM hard lines. No real issue with clearance.

 

Question, why when going long travel are there really no tacos with I beams? When I look up the 5 lug front kits and they are all in the vicinity of 5 g's for the kit without shocks and most you still have to fab. ( Jd fab I think is the only bolt on kit, but 5k for it) I peek on Giant motorsports page, and the front kit for I beams is 2850 with everything needed besides shocks. Obviously a good amount of fabbing involved with it, but with 5 lugs youre likely to do that anyways as I said before. If I have this truck long enough to get to LT point (likely will lol), what would hold me back from I-beams versus other kits?

 

That front bumper

 

Yeah I was just gonna try that sealant/filler stuff you buy at the parts store and see if that helps keep it from spreading...I mean it hasn't spread in 2 years but if it gets hit again it very well could pretty easily.
