1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

Enough guys live down in the bay probably find something to day on Monday lol

 

Fair enough lol

it would be cool to meet up with @BartMaster1234 as well but he's got boats to crash and tours to misguided so who knows,
.. and it be nice to meet @eon_blue but that probably would be hard to swing

 

Yeah hes a sold 8-9 hours south of SF.

unless we all do a Hollister meet or a indian valley meet lol

 

Oh I'll still be at my job until Sept/Oct.

I have Tue and Wed off and if you came by in June, it'd be perfect since my fiancé picked up a chill summer job as a counselor so I'll be at my place for the most part.

 

He's 6 hours south of me; and 4 hours south from the new place. He just needs to hurry his ass up and move out to my area.

 

That would be badass if we could arrange something like that for a Sunday meet up.. im not sure when exactly in June it'll be cause the missus hasn't bought her tickets yet, but I'll let you know as soon as I know.

 

Clearly! He's holding up progress, I gotta meet all you fuckers before I move back east and can't bring my truck around anymore


Yea, I'll arrange it so I have the first 3 days of the week off and we can hang out on a Tuesday since I'll need a day to drive back and rest up for work lol

 

If i can get tyty to go ill throw the axle in his bed and take the rav up

 

Oh fuck yea. 6 pack of white claws and it'll be a party then bois

 

6pack all you need to get tyty drunk

 

@Kwikvette

 

I'd be down to meetup with you guys up there this summer buuuuut it would have to be on a weekend for me

Gotta take a week off with for a family reunion trip in MO in July and again in August to see my brother in OR...gotta save a little PTO after that for the LT meetup later this year too

But I could definitely swing a 3 day weekend up there at Hollister or something in June to meetup with my fellow misfits of the Lunchtable

 

what is the cheapest option to ship a front diff in a 5gallon bucket? (aside from greyhound, fastenal, and other month long shipping options).
fedex, ups, etc are all +$120

 

I was able to ship a front 3rd member double packed in heavy-duty moving boxes from AR to AZ for under $100 last year. Depends on whether rates went up in the past year.

Here's how I packed and shipped it in the link below.

If you are shipping to an individual, you can specify delivery at a nearby Walgreens or another pickup point. That will avoid the residential delivery charge.

Thanks, I guess I didn’t realize how much shipping charges currently are

 

@eon_blue @Sperrunner @BartMaster1234 @Kwikvette


I didn't realize in my drunk ramblings last night trying to make June plans that I can't take a 5 day trip down there because I've got no one to look after the cats


I'll still probably drive down to pick up parts, but it would have to be a 2 day thing max

 

Just bring the cats

 

We've left ours at home for a week before, but we do have someone check in on them a couple times. I just put out a big feeder full of food and few big bowls of water (and extra litter box)

They are usually stir crazy when we get back but we've done that several times and they're always ok

Except one time my wife's cat somehow got under the kitchen floor, that was fun
