1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

Could make a beautiful door stop or paperweight though.

 

Or hold a shelf down.

 

Spc sells the x-axis bushings for more than a set of rock auto arms with x-axis bushings installed

 

The Mevotechs come with the x axis ones? I always thought the Mevotechs were the old style SPCs

 

Yes, and I bought mine like 9 months ago

 

Interesting

 

I see SPC arms #25460 (1st Gen Taco) offered with X Axis bushings installed; can't find X Axis bushings that are available by themselves for #25460..only #25470 (2nd Gen Taco+) and #25480 (4G4R+)

 

So what it's welded steel I say... Not like it's going to bend or break

 

I was looking at them when I ordered my mevotechs to see if I could upgrade but when the mevotechs arrived they already had x-axis bushings

 

Interesting, like Ryan said.

They're called 'Spec Ride' bushings, and I ran into a few posts where some people bitched about how loud they are.

But they don't require lube either...or better yet, you're not supposed to lube them hence the lack of zerk fittings.

 

Even the old SPCs with poly bushings like mine don't come with zerk fittings on the bushings, which is kind of annoying as they do get noisy. The JBAs have zerks for the bushings but don't have an adjustable ball joint like SPCs.

With my alignment fuckery the only way they could get it to track straight was to do 2 different ball joint settings side to side so I kind of need that adjustment feature right now lol

 

all the beans

 

Got the oil changed, tires rotated, driveline greased, truck washed and vacuumed today. Think I need to take it in to a shop sometime soon as Ive got a clunking sound from the front end when going over bumps. Nothing I saw up there looked suspicious. New oem lbj's last year so Im not worried about it falling apart but the noise is starting to annoy me more.

I just got back from TJs and realized I was missing a 6 pack I had listed on the receipt.

I don't think I've ever made the drive back there so quickly in my life, luckily it was still there at the register

 

I was ready to call 911 to report a kidnapping
