1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

I wouldnt do it at all if it werent for the fact that the majority of my guns require calibers that arent found in most gun shops. Ive pretty much stopped loading for 5.56 as good factory ammo is simply too cheap to pass up on right now. 2-6 years from now, that all may change however.

Ive been converting 30-06 cases to 7.7 Japanese this week. So far Ive got 3 hours into 50 cases, just now to the point where I can seat primers.

 

I'm still waiting on a shipment of 2000 556 ammo lol I called yesterday and they told me they had a break down. Which is fine I just wanted an update. It's 62 grain supersonic fmj's

 

Oof yeah, I have stockpiles of .223 and 5.56 so I don't need to reload for a long time but even if i do, I'm set for many years lol

It does break my heart though to have Razor Core 75gr and Black Hills both red box and blue box sit in my storage though.

Buy new

New router and modem seem to have cured my wireless issues. Hitting 300MB down over 5G wireless from my gaming rig now. And the network doesn't drop all the time. Much happier.

 

I have one for a 6.0l in my garage

 

What happen to yours?

 

Huh? The rad gasket is 7 bucks? Dafuq? No idea what you're talking about, saw you said you need a 'rad' in earlier post

 

The upper cap on the Tacoma? Huh????

 

Don't you work at an auto zone or something?

You can get one for your truck for CHEAP.

Stupid easy to replace too

 

If it lasts at least 10 years, that's 15 bucks a year.

Vehicles come at a cost, and fortunately these old Tacos and 4Runners are cheap to keep on the road with the exception of frame rust.

 

You talking the plastic upper and lower tanks? Yeah, as much as I'm a fix it guy, when it comes to that scenario I also replaced the radiator. Wasn't there an option for an OEM all metal radiator for those 4Runners? I might be thinking of 80 series Cruiser of similar years

 

15lb Amazon magnet could not get the broken shaft out

Plan B is to try and weld something to it
Plan C is the ADD tube. That fork is a bitch to move over. I almost had it and had the clamp snaked through but not clamped yet and the fork slipped and crushed the hose clamp

 

*refuses to buy new radiator, car overheats and blows head gasket resulting in a warped head*

All because you wanted to cheap out and not buy a radiator, yet everyone is buying one when the need arises

 

For the 4Runner? That sounds like the 80 series Cruiser scenario. I must be mixed up with that, not the 4Runner.

I see what you were saying/asking now in general. If you have a radiator repair shop around, I've had a radiator hot tanked and rodded for like 50 bucks. I'd bet they would install that upper tank with the o-ring/seal for ya

 

Amen. The 3.4 and overheating is not one that I would want to take a chance on

 

Damn. The shift/actuator fork thing is that hard to move?

 

Yeah, had to use 2 mini pry bars to push it over and it springs back with as much force.

Tried to use some HF vice grips to hold it in place and that was a no go

 

Guess skipping the gym all summer didn't help me

 

Only because you've been very abrasive, and I like to go against the grain, what is the issue with buying a new radiator and installing it?

 

Lol you just need another set of hands. You still able to use a lift/shop? Or back to the garage?
