1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

That was gunna be my next recommendation was airing down.. had alot of redneck buddies that did that for their lifted rigs. But it doesn't really make a difference if it's too long as well

 

He's in Colorado

My girl has been at my place since right after Christmas; I fear playing Battleship with her since she always gets a hit on her first call...

 

I mean I could still throw it in for oil changes or quick maintenance but generally I do those on the street. My driveway is is pretty steep

 

Wow, that's crazy.... do you have to do a border run to get it? That would be poor enforcement on their part if they're letting you get it through the mail

 

Steep driveways are the worst... I've done a crazy amount of maintenance in Walmart parking lots lol

 

I for shits and giggles wanted to put my camrys 225/50/17s on my 4 runners 17s to see how much torque it would have

Wall hack, just sayin'...

 

he needs a bigass mirror on the wall

 

still thinking about that 5" exhaust for my truck. Maybe that will be my bday gift to myself if I don't buy a bunch of dumb shit before then

 

I should probably buy some preventative maintenance parts first

Just like all those COD players

 

Same

What all do you need to do to the truck

 

@xtremewlr

Remember I filed a dispute with USAA on Monday?

I don't know if they got a call or not but I got this reply after having called/emailed them on 1/6/21

 

I need to add a "disaster prevention kit" -- Ford/Dodge/GM/Mercedes/VW diesels with the CP4 pump can require extensive repairs if the pump fails. the pump is lubricated by fuel and if it goes out it sends metal fragments through the entire fuel system and takes out the lines and injectors....


I also need to do a trans filter and fluid, front diff fluid, and coolant change. I should add a pyro but I'm not super worried about EGTs since ford built the truck to withstand regens at 1300ish deg F EGT

 

That first part sounds like something a truck has been in for before at our shop

I will say though, in all the years I've been here, and all the Cummins engines that get worked on (everything from 2500 to 5500, most customers are diesel owners here), we've only seen 1 motor failure.

That motor was sent back to Cummins and a new dyno-run, complete long block was sent.

 

Probably, yea.


fortunately it does not cause motor failure...but parts and labor for the pump, lines, fuel system, and injectors are 8k+

 

Some places won’t mail it to me. Amazon does surprisingly.

I think I can buy it by the jug but I haven’t found it yet

 

what's their price? I can double it
