1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

I didn't know about the plastic BB method until @Running Board Man told me about it

 

The manager at the Les Schwab up the street assured me they would do beadlocks. I asked several times. He was sure.

I brought mine in and he didn't understand that I only needed the inner bead seated on the wheel and kept saying that he didn't think I was right about the outer bead bolting on

 

BBs or antifreeze work pretty well

If they're really, really heavy tires like on a semi you can use golf balls

 

Got dinner with aunts, uncles, cousins and even my grandparents came out for the first time since the start of COVID.

Decided to grab some beers on the way home

 

Yeah I heard about the antifreeze sometime back, but only last year about the bbs

 

Actually one of the ones it has is leaking RN, still drove it 300 miles home

That being said, there's really only up from one dead and one leaking injector

 

Just leaking is fine?



Invest in yourself and spend the extra

 

I don't have that $400, I used cheap eBay injectors before they were great

As I've said maybe I got a good batch last time but theyve worked for me in the past

 

Fucking LOL'd too hard at this one

 

@SouthernYoder

Jumping on

 

@Kwikvette for sure.

The fuck is wrong with you lol

 

Only the ex wife ever called me that

 

@xtremewlr
@Empty_Lord
@esxcli

You all getting on?

 

WTF? Never heard of using antifreeze to balance tires. BBs, yeah, known about those for a long time, just never tried them.

 

I can for a bit. Waiting for my daughter to get here. She's driving out from San Diego. Should be here about 9:30 I think.

 

I thought @Wulf called you that to lol

 

I asked them like 6 times, they kept saying yes we know what beadlocks are! How did you not get the inner bead to mount? Just pump it up till it pops, like fawking!!

I did the BB thing on my old set of beadlocks and SSRs and it "worked" occasionally. It varies stop light to stoplight.

@esxcli you have a crawler, just fill them all the way up with water! It was always cool walking around before a trail ride and you see some buggies weeping water from around the beads!

 

I thought filling them all the way was to help them keep the wheel side down

 

It is, adds a shit load of unsprung weight, it also leaks out from the beadlock ring. I was just saying since he has a trail rig, go all in!
