1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

So, I guess painting my car Datsun Orange isn’t a good idea.

 

fuck it bright is tite

 

I don't ever plan on using wheel spacers bc the lift spindle shove the front tires on 5 lugs out 4-5 inches each, just curious.

Only time I'd consider is when I convert rear to 6 lug and possibly using a wheel spacer adaptor in the back to keep my rear rims usable for a bit

 

Just like a wheel can, galvanic corrosion is a bitch.

 

They can react with the steel and fuse on there pretty good. We had a fun time taking a stuck one off of @Sub-Zero 's truck. I think we took the nuts off the spacer, put the wheel back on, and kicked the back of the tire to pop the spacer off.


My spacers seem to come off 1x for maintenance after every trip so I've never had an issue

 

shiiiiieeet, but how much "abusing" and neglect does it take to get there

 

When I was emailing back and forth with the SCS sales guy making sure these would fit after the Tundra brake upgrade (they will, he did that upgrade too) the prices were about $385 - $405 depending on what wheel style I choose

 

Just line it

 

Looks better on a 240Z

 

Just take em off every couple of months, happens less in AZ anyway cause there's no moisture.

 

Jax, bedlining everything is not the solution.

 

do it, I took an evening class and $700 covered a whole semester for tuition and materials.

We covered oxy acet, stick, tig, mig, cutting, and more. Years later still probably one of the most useful classes I've ever taken

 

makes sense, thanks for the info! You too @Wulf !

 

@BartMaster1234 go with safety orange since everything in your life is a construction zone

 

Vehicular body problems = line it

 

Or blue because he’s handicap

 

Actually kinda works on smallish to mediumish dents cause the texture makes depth hard to percieve

 

@BartMaster1234

 

It’s all about covering up those deep brush scratches, I had a lot of those with a white vehicle
