1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

Every 1st gen owner has some degree of lower ball joint PTSD lol

 

Haha luckily mine are brand new.
*But I haven't put my new shocks on up front yet and I did put my bumper on so...could be related to that.

 

When I had my last rack go bad it was very apparent from outside the truck. There was 1/4-/2" play on the pass side while changing directions

 

I'll pucker up when my shitbox stops making noise.

"Yep, there's that one..and that one...and coming right up is that squeak over there"

 

The calm before the storm

 

Got vibrations around 50 mph in the cab floor now so that’s cool. Getting the rear u joint replaced Tuesday. My check ended up being a lot better than I thought so I’m debating to pull the trigger on a support bearing too.

Aren’t bad support bearing symptoms more of a shake than a vibration?

 

Found a use for that airplane upholstery.

 

My truck does a lil shimmy when you hit the brakes at high speeds. I think it’s something to do with out of spec rotors.

 

Caused vibrations at certain speeds when my carrier bearing was bad. The rubber bushing around it was ripped pretty bad.

 

Looks like our rainy season has set in.

 

My 4runner is doing the same thing. Rotors was my first thought.

 

@eon_blue I was doing some spring cleaning today. I found this classic. Did you ever use the Curtis curve?

 

Haha yeah I remember those. Don't think I ever had one though. Would be hard to lay the stick flat across the ice I would think, one end would angle upward

 

And like that, a country falls.

Been MIA on the forum reading about the latest...it's fucking sad and horrible at the same time.

 

with the blocker on I could not lay it flat.

 

I remember Itech brand haha. They were big in roller hockey back in the day

 

I loved Itech back in the day, that and Tour. They were light and easy to move in. I never played goalie in a gam just pickup and practice.

 

I Totally agree

 

Im sorry for those that served over there. 20 years there and its back to where it was in August of 2001.
