1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

Pretty much this. Parts store replacement rotors and ceramic pads are great. Calipers, is probably go with Napa remans personally.

 

Yeah I don't believe in all the slotted/drilled rotor hype, at least not for our trucks. I'm sure there's something to it on performance applications but seems unnecessary for the average Joe. No need for anything fancy

I've never had an issue braking or them getting too hot, but I don't ride my brakes either. Downshifting ftw

 

Thanks for all the recommendations, everyone!

 

Awesome, the shop that did my LCA bushings lost my JBwelded Durobump on the driver side lol. Just noticed it missing today (the weld nut inside the LCA broke off so I can't screw it on).

It lasted 2+ years JBwelded onto the arm, only to get knocked off and misplaced by a shop. Sigh

Hopefully I can get another before Moab.

 

@esxcli

 

Durobumps being a one man operation might be a slow down there. Think they have almost a month lead time now.

 

Yeah I remember hearing that recently. I still have my old durobumps somewhere, the ones that were starting to chip apart. Hopefully I can find them and put one back on for the trip

 

I like their products and hope they stay in business. The diff arm bushings saved my life during the 4WD conversion. Are your new ones holding up better than the original set?

 

Yeah they are but I also don't wheel as much or as hard as I did a few years ago lol. One of them has a crack but with how soft the compound is, I think it's just something that can/will happen over time. With little rocks and dirt getting caught between the bump and strike plate it seems inevitable at some point.

 

Oh shit...

I'll let you have one of my bumpstops since I'll have my factory ones removed soon.

 

You bring that and I'll bring the JBWeld lol

 

The stock one will be better than nothing for sure so that would be awesome thanks @Kwikvette

Still gonna look for my old duros but I don't know if I saved them

 

In before @Wulf comes in here saying your tires aren't big enough if you're having to use bumpstops

 

Rear mud flaps going to go? Love those wheels with larger tires.

 

Dont know yet, but probably.

The broke a wheel stud on the front zapping shit down. They now get to repair it. They torque everything to 90 too and won't change it so i get to re-torque everything at home.

 

What's wrong with 90? The torque is 83 anyways. Right in the margin of error haha. I zip the cruiser to 112.

 

Vans are rad. If I just had the time I would of fixed that toyota van

 

Is the forum doing Secret Santa this year?
