1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

Don't ever bring it up again. You jacked up like one of the best equipped colors and interiors to ever come on Tacoma....

 

ADS had been on my mind from time to time, but the Kings I've had brand new in box for a long time now.

I bought them for the Tacoma since I had purchased my Fox 2.5 in regular travel length.

I'll use the Kings for what they're worth and decide later if I need to change anything after putting it through its paces.

I kept asking "what else should I do" and really...I just need to put it together and run it through things. Still have another $3-4k in the 4R Toy Budget.

 

There's a couple of tools, and you have to get really creative to make it work on the front since it has to be measured with the clam bolted together, and each trial it'll have to come apart and have more or less shims pressed on

 

Yeah, I really fucked that one up

 

Yeah fuck that noise

 

Why not just get a selectable locker?

 

They're worth more in the box... we've attributed their shortness to some of the harshness that cracks coil buckets. No matter what your front setup ends up being you need limit straps to avoid ruined buckets and lower shock bolt tab tearing. And you should consider beefing the bucket too

 

I don't want to need to switch between traction and turning

In the 01 4 runner needing to stop press the button go back and forth a couple times did it enguaged did it enguaged am I in awd or 4x4 alright the light stopped flashing cool

I just want something that when I stomp on the gas sends power to both wheels

 

You weren't the first and aren't the last either. But yeah it still blows

 

Rather just be forced not to turn huh? wheelers rarely need a front anyway, not sure why on a stock ass 4runner this mod is so high up on your list. Get some sliders and sort your suspension out first (instead of some hacked together garbage from another model). If you don't lift a tire you don't need a locker

 

Somebody making soup?

 

He'd still be dead, it was a TJ, zero wheel travel cause baby leafs and tiny AT tires hah

 

YJ actually. TJ had round headlights.

 

Didn’t realize it was for the front

 

4R has a rear locker already

 

Um, well I do on occasion I've done the gas and brake thing at the same time to get out of stuff 2x

Well I can't get any more travel out of the front end as the strut maxes out centimeters before the cv starts to bind... No mater what suspention shock/spring combo I have that is the ultimate limitation and I'm kissing it at full droop

I have sliders, I have uppers and lowers in the front the rear is flexy enough and I'm not high enough to need links so why bother... perhaps just correct the panhard bar than just get a locker eventually

 

You've got a rear locker?

If I had none, I'd get one in the rear before I fucked with the front.

 

Nice. Gunna buy chromeoly shafts for the front? Like that other lifted runner dude kn here has

 

Just weld everything
