1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

I think 2, 4, and 8 cylinder engines have a soothing sound that people don't mind. Loud V6s seem to irritate the neighbors. Ask me how I know this.

 

I can hear it idling from my condo well on the second story in the mornings. It's no prius

 

The Tacos V6 is annoying, i hate the sound it makes. The Cruisers inline 6 is very nice, just loud. I find I6 to all sound really nice, something about an engine with perfect primary balance is very appealing. 4cyls are pretty damn awful usually too, Hondas ruined em.

 

Yeah you could

 

The rice sound..

 

Ok cool. Good news!
you wouldn't happen to know off the top of your head what that reverse torques socket size/name is that holds the tube on would you?
Just when you think you have all the specialty tools.

 

Oh yeah those large e-torx are a pain haha

@BartMaster1234 might know, Id replace em with some flage head hex bolts after

The books were my girl's idea; I don't have my degree in childhood development or any of that fancy stuff

She picked those as being really good reads for children (when they're ready) and are recommended everywhere. Hope the kiddos enjoy them

 

Thanks man, I really appreciate that. She’s got good taste apparently. No homo

 

Extra homo, with a special dollop of metro on top

 

Did a Heep recovery the other night at Cleghorn.



The only way out was downhill. So we hooked up 3 trucks choo choo train style and dragged him down.

Sadly the engine of that jeep wouldn't turn over as this guy ran the engine for a good 30 minutes starving it of oil on one side. So i decided to be the designated tow truck and tug their jeep down the trail. Turned a 3 hour trail run into a 7 hour recovery.

 

oof, that's rough, but the dude gets dumbass of the year for leaving the engine running

 

Yeah kept telling him to turn off his engine, it sounded like grinding metal. He didnt even know how to use his winch. Clearly a bought not built jeep.

 

You can replace the extension tube, yeah.

You'll probably need a torch and an impact to get those bolts to come out of the diff

 

If this is a "good" drywall lift i don't want to know how shitty the HF is

These things are ghetto as fuck. Thinking about putting tack welds to hold the tilt mechanism in place so it's not so wobbly 10 feet up with 70lb sheets on it

 

Who's did you end up with, I didn't like using a lift, easier to just find a friend, better results too haha

 

The only CV I ever broke was this way, inside the ADD tube and I replaced it in camp and here's what I did: take the tube off and beat the tube against something HARD. I used a trailer fender (@8am to wake up all my alchie friends ) and it will eventually pop out. You can also remove the ADD actuator and try to punch it out with something. Beating the tube against a trailer fender did it for me. It's not hard, you just cannot be a pussy and slam the hell out of that tube.....

Getting the tube out is two big ass bolts that hold it to the truck and the reverse torx like others have said. You also need to disconnect the ADD wiring.

For the most part I work alone. My friends are busy and or live far enough away that unless it's something I really need help with it's too much of an inconvenience

 

For bringing all my tools and helping him install the lift on his JL my buddy bought me a compound miter saw for Christmas. It will be very handy
