1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

I plan on running a 7th, with methanol, and slightly lower compression running the smallest pulley I can, I should make decent enough power till I’m ready to go through phase two of the engine mods... but phase two can’t happen till the trucks either 25 or I’m out of emissions land

 

honestly you don't even really notice it after awhile, it's just like with buying regular... you just stop paying attention to it and do it because you need the gas.

 

Unless you're on a road trip to UT and have to fill up 6 times each way, that kind of hurts

 

@JKO1998

Tracking changed from expected delivery Tuesday the 23rd to Saturday the 20th

 

Could've been worse; that Vegas gas station though

 

Surprised it didn't break it's legs

 

I kind of want to do it again without the roof rack on and see how much difference it makes, especially when we got into Utah at one point going up those steep grades against a headwind...pretty sure with that air dam up on my roof I was getting -2mpg

I remember having the pedal to the floor in 4th gear and topping out at like 60 mph at one point lol.

 

Oh yeah I remember your truck swaying slightly from time to time.

I didn't feel it as much at all until recently with my awning install.

Fortunately a few bolts removes it quickly; may just do that for long trips.

You gonna fill in the holes on your roof anytime soon? May as well just build an exo cage "while you're there"

 

I bought the filler supplies just need to get the paint...might just take it to a body shop and have them do it though.

 

Speaking of body shop...$1k - 1.5k for a pro body shop to bed line spray my 4R

 

JUST DIY BRO

 

I did it for $400

 

Well, just change the LT 2021 meeting

 

don't you fking dare

 

I cannot find another picture right now of a lower, but this kit from Dez mounts them the way you want them mounted both for clearance and strength of how you load the joint.



You can see how the lower would mount here

 

Oh no shit that's completely different than what the other guy is doing.

The one posted by Jaxon seems like the guy looked at a UCA with uniball and thought "neat, I'll do that with LBJs"

 

You won't see uniball LBJs that are worth a damn that fit in the stock location, MCM has a way of doing it too that's a bit stronger since they change the roll center but still, uniballs aren't like traditional balljoints.

 

It just blows my mind how there are already so many products available for these trucks and people are still trying to engineer something newer, and "better" though not everyone succeeds...

Sucks for everyone that bought out those uniball LBJ's. Even more so, I'm surprised we haven't seen a thread in the 1st gen section of someone owning a set.

 

"HALP, STUCK ON HILL. NEED UNIBALL FOR LBJ, IT BR0KKE"
