1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

This one is just macabre enough I'll get the wife to laugh regardless of how cheesy it is, thank you

 

Brothers car is fixed. Get to pocket 2 grand from this mess and it’s still a clean title.


So red corolla is going in for a new bumper and painting the skirt. Then that one gets sold for a pretty penny

 

@theesotericone has

I've seen an FJ on the trail with a broken tie rod but never a 1st gen taco, think our LBJ is more likely to give up the ghost first in most cases

 

I’m pretty sure he’s the exception to most things

 

He actually wheels

 

I guess the T4R tie rod is a little different too so it's not 100% comparable

 

Yeah, one is angled whereas the other one is more straight.

This also contributes to the different ball joints as well.

Turning radius is a lot better on the 4R.

 

weren't you going to switch yours to Tacoma ones or did that not happen yet

 

4runner is the length of a reg cab taco... so yes it’ll turn tighter than an extended cab

 

Yeah I just haven't ordered ball joints yet; ordered a black grill to get rid of the chrome though.

Figured having Tacoma LBJs I can buy an extra set of 555 from Low Range as back ups.

 

It appears that my roommate is down with the sickness


Or a sickness


So boooooo

 

Land cruiser joints are a cheaper solution

 

There's only one sickness worth noting anymore

unless it's herpes or something

Oooh shit

I remember that uniball conversion awhile back but thought it was by someone else.

God dammit I'm supposed to be saving money

*adds it to wedding registry*

 

damn, first time I'm seeing this....interesting


I have an old set of OEM LBJs I could send him for a discount when those uniball ones are ready....hmm

 

Was posted a year ago on Facebook as a kickstarter or something.

Some people here had their opinions about it but I was still interested.

 

I vaguely remember that yeah

I dunno...I mean, I already assume the risk that our LBJs carry every time I get in my truck, do I really want to assume the risk of some random fabricator's LBJ conversion and have to learn to trust someone all over again? My heart can only take so much
