1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

I just keep giving him IOUs

 

I did that for a long, long time. But now the Tacoma wants to cash in on every trip. I think I broke something the last 4 out of 5 trips which is why it's in time out while I hoard all the parts I owe

 

I forgot to put a /s at the end of that. I used to work for a boss that anytime you brought up an idea that was logical and make sense he would sarcasticly say thats crazy talk and explain we need to make it more complex and expensive for it to get approved by the higher ups lol!!

 

yeah I was sorta being facetious there but also not really...I never really let stuff "slide" but I'm not always keen on what may or may not need attention until it becomes apparent, and the last year or so a lot of stuff is becoming apparent lol.

Most recently was the shop last week saying something in my front end must be fucked because they can't get my camber in sync side to side, but I'm pretty sure (hoping) they just didn't factor in the SPCs and one of them probably got it's camber setting knocked out of whack. Gonna try to fix that tonight

When I picked it up from my alignment last week the dude was like "you full on sent it didn't you?"....wtf this truck has basically been a grocery getter and fire road crawler since my daughter was born, lol. I don't see how I could have fucked something up in the last year but we'll see

That would be a fun car to own.

 

I don't know anything about Supras except they are the wet dream of the Fast and Furious crowd...but that's probably going to auction off for a ton of money right?

Always wondered how easy it would be rowing gears in a right hand drive vehicle, I feel like it would throw me off big time but maybe not.

 

Current bid is $8500 and there is a day left.

I learned how to drive on the right. Rowing gears with your left hand isn't all that hard or goofy.

 

So what you're telling me is, you can ski

 

'Go ahead and them all up, every cent is accounted for' lmaooooo

 

These lines from this scene... Been too long, I gotta re-watch it

 

It's definitely due for another watch. Just re-watched Ace Ventura last weekend.

 

Hold up, the alignment shop doesn't adjust the camber in the upper arms??? Laziness? Or is it normal that shops don't set the uppers when they're adjustable? Isn't that the point of having adjustable arms, so there are more adjustments to get it aligned?

 

Could I get your guys opinion on these?

Thinking of going with Walker just cause I've used their stuff before on customer repairs.. but they don't say what any of these are made of and I want something that'll last a long time

Was thinking of these cause it's all one unit vs. The collector being separate from the cat like it is currently

 

Ski? Like snow ski? I learned how to ski when I was living in Belgium. We had ski trips to Switzerland and Austria. This was also before the invention of snow boards.

 

I laughed good at Ace Ventura back in the day but I didn't appreciate it near enough. I gotta re-watch all those.
Cable Guy is also an all time fave

 

Those are badass!!

 

Summit shows them as being stainless. - https://www.summitracing.com/parts/wlk-52378

 

Cable Guy was spot on about predicting the future of TV/Gaming.

 

I just don't think they are used to our trucks having adjustable arms, all alignment adjustments are made via the lower arms normally. Firestone basically laughed at me when I asked them to make adjustments to my upper arms lol.

SPC to my knowledge is the only UCA we have available that lets you adjust camber & caster via the UCA. All the others just have built in caster but not adjustable.

JBA might have adjustable caster I can't remember
