1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

I have a welder and PCK kit ready for install as well. Bring your rig to Central Oregon with those caps and we can install the PCK's on both our rigs...

Is the TSB for the 3rd Gen tail light shit really some silicone? Was just reading and laughing at this thread and reminded me of what you said the other day...

Honest answer. I don't know. I'm not that smart. It's one of those "Joe Dirt" kind of things that I stumbled into that worked out well.

I saw some local people who know a lot about OR suspensions and have a lot more money than me to spend on a suspension moving from ICON to Dobinsons. I figured they must be good and are most likely crazy expensive. I started talking to a local OR builder about suspensions and what I like. He recommended Dobinsons. They were new for the 100 series at that point and hard to get. I was an early adopter and I didn't mind that. I was surprised at the price when compared to other products. I just knew that I wasn't going to start throwing $1,000 bills at a worn-out AHC suspension. Good riddance.

I have Bilsteins 5100s on the Tacoma and they aren't bad.. They weren't available for the 100 at the time I was looking to buy. I could have easily wound up with Bilstens if I came along a few months later.

One of my buds came about a 100 series and installed an OME suspension to replace some heavily worn OEM shocks. That was the first time that I drove a 100 and didn't like it at all. Looking back, I think I didn't like the way it drove because all of the bushings, ball joints, and other stuff were worn out.

There is a member named CrikeyMike that is the Dobinsons vendor. He seems to know all about them.

 

*that moment when you realize you need to clean out your desk and type up your 2 week notice while at work because you made a quick and logical decision to buy out your lease and move out all within those 2 weeks*

 

Meanwhile my wife is sending me memes like

 

Who gives 2 weeks notices anymore

Out of respect to the owner of a family owned business that I've been a part of for years now.

I've been given raises, when I didn't ask for them. I've been given a few times a separate paycheck, from his own account, to supplement me during moments where our business hit an all time low and I wouldn't have even received a bonus check. I've moved up, been sent to school (paid for, including hotel) relating to my job for compliance and more, even though it wasn't required.

The company, and owner have really gone out of their way for me. The only thing that sucks really are the stupid long hours but that's just how it is anyway.

 

I'm just messin, that's awesome they've been so generous! The last 2 companies like that I worked for, I ended up giving them a 30day notice out of respect for everything they did for me. I know you don't have that kinda time but a friendly thankful letter from you will probably be appreciated given how hard you work

 

It indeed is

 

You should take some pics of the repair and post them in that thread. Break some turd gen hearts...

 

Now the hassle of Xfinity chat as I request a suspension of my account.

Then I'll have to follow up with PG&E.

All the shit we don't think about until later...

 

Tell them you're moving out of the country, there's no way their retention people can argue with that.
