1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

From a 5 lug start might as well given the amount of money required to go to IFS anyways

 

@Wulf

How are you and the girlfriend?

Wonder if any more serious talk has come up lately, or if you two are just taking things as they go? You two are so good together, would be awesome to hear one day "the GF and I are moving in together"

 

That's what I was about to say. At work so I can't read his full build, but did the IFS even fit like the Prerunners can do 4x4 swap?

Prolly have to cut the coil bucket and shit to match the front suspension on prerunner

 

@Kwikvette - time to spend more of your money

 

He cares about her... from i cant work on the dmax to being balls deep in it in 2 weeks later

 

Where does he say he started as a 5 lug? Maybe I missed it

 

I believe so, he never says anything about 5 lugs, just 5 speed.

Neat truck still

 

Late

 

No sale. I wanted to have the option of carrying extra fuel if needed. Read to many horror of rotopax leaking, swelling and their capacity is nothing to write home about. Going to do it right, do it right the first time....

Also ordered a mount for the roof rack. What's nice is the clamp down can separate from the tray, I'll still be able to park in the garage.

 

Do people go with the metal cans for expo points or why?

 

durability. Wavian is durable AF.

Spending money on something else...I don't post about it until I've pulled the trigger though.

 

I like the plastic race cans. The normal red cans that you get from the store have the worst spouts ever, but you can buy a little kit for like 10$ that comes with a new spout and breather that make them 100% better

 

There are only a couple of options for the roof and the FrontRunner version seems to have issues with the bracket bending on the sides.

Ended up going with the ARB. Pricey AF but as long as its going to hold up (the mount bracket) I'm happy.

Transfer case and transmission

 

Naw; actually thanks for bringing that up.

I used my work email when I inquired on car-part.com

Haven't checked my email at all since I've been on my days off.
