1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

thanks my dude, guess i need to start placing some orders. U guys like the marlin shifter bushing or?

 

I think I went with gray rtv.

I tried re-using the gasket first since it didn't tear, that ended well

 

That's what I used. Throw in a short throw shifter for more fun.

 

How can any car lover forget the impossible trick question?

 

Haha. That movie is chock full of good stuff.

The deer scene, the leaky faucet, the grits...

 

Are any of you guys using a time-lapse camera? I'm starting to see time-lapse footage in some videos.

Interesting that its a dedicated device. I have an interval timer for my SLR, it was like $20.

Even made a video when i was playing around with it:

Looks like its pretty heavily optmized for time lapse - scheduling, battery optimizations, a decent lens etc. Neat.

The dual battery version looks to be around $200.

 

I usually keep a tube of Ultra black on hand since it's rated for oil and temps up to 500 deg or so. I use it on everything unless it's a reaaaaaly special case... which doesn't apply to most toyotas

 

Excluding TurdGens

 

Don't tempt him with a good time... short throw shift with his glaspack exhaust? He'll be faster than Tyler with his turbo

 

special is an appropriate term <3

 

4th gen 4Runner A750F trans pan uses a cork/rubber gasket from the factory.

 

this feels like the kind of shit talk my buddies would throw at me in high school

I remember my buddy putting a glasspack on his ram and insisting that it made his truck faster

 

interesting. I haven't touched a Toyota automatic in 10 years

it's funny how much they vary by manufacturer/model. Ford has been using a resusable gasket for 10+ years on the full size trucks at this point

 

Yeah, I recently replaced the strainer in my 4Runner and it had the gasket there, never opened since new. Replaced with a new gasket. Neither the old or new have leaked.

 

Question on that one; was the pan where it mates to the transmission smooth or did it have a ridge/indent?

I used FIPG on my 1st Gen as that's what it had from the factory though it doesn't surprise me that yours used an actual gasket.

 

I can relate to the type of trail and mud hole. But there's a point where you realize you need to wade out into the mud to unspool the winch before you start to do serious damage.
