1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

Just where you let the Alternator feed the new winch until the 10ga conductor bursts into flame. Grand Vitara and some 2ga cabling is a good route. I've had the Vitara alt in my bed for weeks.

 

I've done home audio and wire installs; I'm familiar with current draw and having the right gauge wiring.

 

haven't forgotten about those lights. just need to stop being lazy and get a box together. if your situation has changed and need them sooner, let me know.

 

Whenever you get around to it. I drove the taco for the first time in weeks today.

 

will put it together tues/wed and message you.

 

Lol good luck with that. 5 minutes after the loader puts a fresh Tacoma down, the engine and the transmission is gone.

 

Unless its a 5 lug.

 

well, you never know. Have faith in the great wrecking yard and it will provide...

 

Oh you’d be surprised. The 5-Lugs are plentiful here.

 

I’ve been going to the junkyard for many years now and the only 4x4 that had manual hubs I’ve ever seen was in @Kwikvette ’s neck of the woods. It’s 90% 5-lugs or PreRunners. 4x4 is very exceedingly rare.

 

Lol

This

Mike, I remember when Tyler messaged me about a 4x4 Tacoma that hit my local pick n pull.

I was working so the truck sat an extra day and the engine was already gone.

I didn't mess with the spindles cause one side looked bent; was a bitch pulling the hub assemblies off the crooked studs.

I could've grabbed the diff but I didn't have the special socket to undo the manual diff tube; would've had to remove some stuff to pull it out.

 

Its rare every where. Any 4x4 Taco or even 4Runner in yards by me usually has the fun bits removed before hitting the yard.

 

you discouraging

 

Need to hit up an auto salvage yard via carpart.com. Not a u-pick it style place. You'll get what you want, just may have to hunt a little bit.

 

Or just buy a parts truck

There's always ebay as well.

 

@what road @Empty_Lord

 

Oof

 

Yea. But it won’t pass.

 

Probably submitted by some lone wolf state rep who wants attention from media. Happens every year in my state and others and it goes no where.

Unless your Virginia. In that case, Civil War 2 starts tomorrow at 8 am.
