1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

if i can find a press break to bend up some skid plates ive got some 10 gauge stainless steel 8'x8' sheets i would love to use. (man they'd be heavy though)

 

ive really contemplated their bumper. but i got a good deal on the OEM style one for now. eventually i'll armor up the tundra.

 

i have to fix my miller dynasty first though. my little miller wouldnt be happy welding sliders on

 

The Brute Force rear swing out is really nice, wish they made more 1st gen stuff. I think I remember they have one 1st gen front bumper on their website but I don't really care for that one lol. Their 2nd gen stuff looks great though

 

pickins are slim for 1st gen tundras. but theyre out there. i do like his bumper design

 

Bug guard ruins it

I agree though it's a good lookin bumper

 

Predators have different tube sizes. The skinny ones look pretty good imo.

My thing was all the chrome the PO had on my truck. I like chrome accents, but not the amount of bling he had going. The grille guard came off the next day after I bought it, I had to wait to remove the steps cause I was sick as a dog when I got it. I remember sitting in that dealership for hours just feeling like I couldnt breathe. It was agonizingly horrible. Oh and the truck reeked of smoke too. That took a good month to fix.

 

Yeah those grill guards are a big no go for me. My truck came with one of those chrome Westin bull bars and removing it was the first thing I did too.

 

Oh no

Breaking a screw extractor is the worst

 

Try plugging it in, it might work. I’ve never tested it in the truck.

 

I copied Addicted Offroads 1st gen Tundra rear bumper for my truck sans the side tubes.


Their front bumpers are my favorite design by far. They look the same for all the vehicles they make them for.

 

i like their front bumper. but 1300 eek

 

Totaled. Ill give you 1k shipped max

 

I sold it to some dude for $60. He drove 70 miles to come get it. He asked what I was gonna use to protect it instead. Gave me a blank look when I responded with nothing.

 

i like the guard on my 01 taco.
the tundra ones are ugly.

 

I drove a four hour round trip to buy a rollbar for the truck I never ended up using haha.

 

An 80's rollbar? Not one of those headache things?

I think both would look really out of place on a 1st gen. Imo the 2nd gen pickups like Marty Mcflys was the last generation that those things looked good on.

 

Yeah I bought two. The first one came out of a Chevy and didn’t fit right. The second one I drove a long way for because it’s movie accurate, it came off a 1985 Toyota Pickup just like the movie.

 

Did you sell it or..?

 

Both are still sitting in my backyard.

Waiting...

Wait to die, wait to live, wait for an absolution... which would never come.
