1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

I will be going with these -

Just the fact that upper links aren't necessary, I figured I'd upgrade the bushings themselves.

The lowers are slightly longer and offset which provides the best I can get with the stock geometry.

I'll run into issues with the fuel tank colliding with the driveshaft before anything else becomes an inhibitor. I've upgraded all I can in the rear already.

What I really need to do is install my Icon UCA's.

 

@Running Board Man

What all else are you doing to your 4R?

 

Well I may end up with my buddies r150 that needs a rebuild and t case... It's 1k for the adapter kit to put it behind my lexuses 4.0 v8 but that's in the far future

For now... it's 3rz needs to work since it keeps blowing the am2 fuse, I took the engine wire harness out and ordered heat tape, conduit, and all the broken connectors, also going to delete the egr and clean the manifold

just have it's interior cleaned up a bit

Clear corner lights cause the tiwan specials it has are falling off

I'm very happy with my ebay links there's no extra vibration compared to rubber and the axle feels connected to the truck, I added zerks so I I can grease them if they squeek

I like how with no rubber bushings I don't have to feel bad when the suspention flexes cause there's no bushings tearing

I'll be on the lookout for later model 1st gen tundra spindles for the beefier ball joint

I want the cvs you have but O'Reilly's still says they're unobtanium

 

If we're talking future projects; rear shock relocation, then F150 fuel tank mod.

 

I probably edited my post a bunch since this comment

 

I've only ever seen broken upper links fwiw

Iirc a pck helps the driveshaft gas tank problem

I’m probably going to buy one of those extended travel CVs and see if I can swap on a manual hub outer tulip. I think NAPA has an identical extended shaft in stock as well.

 

@eon_blue when his coworkers ask if they can look at their car

 

You dont need CVs if you sas ​

 

It took me a week to install a trans cooler + thermostat. Don’t even want to know how long I’d take to do a SAS.

 

@Wulf would be happy to see his sticker

 

About as long as it will take @what road to LT the taco

 

so never?

 

that weld on these 800 dollar modified stock control arms looks kinda dodgey... Doubt anyone who buys them will stress them enough to even get near damaging a stock set as the only people who buy them are insta wheelers but still

 

Are those the guys selling stock arms with the eimkeith LCA reinforcement plates welded on? $130 for the plates + $140 for two stock arms in a yard (or free if you use your own) = a lot less than $800.
