1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

Some friend you are

 

Upon further inspection it seems my tie rod is OK... Can't find a tear anywhere on the boot and I recall now that I had two CV axle boots tear on that side over the last several months and grease got everywhere... It's likely just left over grease that I didn't clean well enough

I'm wondering now if maybe my rack bushings need to get swapped. The whole rack seems to move when the pop happens, had a buddy turn the wheel while I was under it. Guessing that points to the bushings

 

They send you a new diff, you install and send your old one back as a core

 

Things break when you actually use your truck and don't treat it like the 8th wonder of the world (not you)

As far as being a lemon goes this truck has not once ever failed to start or get home from trails and to work every day the past 4 years/60k miles... Considering what I put it through I'd say that's pretty far from unreliable

 

I will pull mine and send it to Zuk for the installation. Then he returns it and I install it.

 

You only wanna visit when i work

 

da fuck you mean 8th wonder

i use it to haul shit when needed and wheel in the mid west snow

and travel out of state to funerals

 

I can't have my shit breaking at the mall

 

*TRIGGERED*

 

I already took the bait once, not gonna bite off the rest

 

i am just having fun with you, no harm meant

 

could be that i basically see no old tacoma in my area anymore idk
its a strain on the psyche at times

there's a 'few' but not many now

 

hahah

 

i aint got no mall door dings that i am aware of, been VERY very frickin careful in that department!

 

aint nothing to wheel around these here parts but farmland mud

 

Sounds like an absolute gold mine. Sounds like a great place and folks to have some rapport established

 

Told you, would've easily bought yours just before I joined the site.

I had scrolled through and ran into 4x4 conversions which led me to getting a Prerunner. Otherwise yours was an easy choice

 

*considers selling truck and buying a stick shift 3rd gen 4runner*

 

I would too if I came across one in as good condition as I found this truck in, but those t4rs are incredibly hard to find in good shape/low miles
