1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

I say wheel it as-is. Find its limits before putting a lot of money into it. You'll be surprised at how much you can do in a stock rig.

 

Ahh.. You're taking the route from Ft. Smith down the west side (hwy 84) via Pecola and Poteau through the western Ouachitas.

 

Lightbars and welded diff?

I was contemplating building a basic tube bumper for it on the drive home lol

 

Hwy 123 is "The Dragon" that runs north from Clarksville has 180-degree switchbacks I get on those roads and drive like hell to get up in the Mulberry and Oark area.

Need the rig to handle like a sports car for most of the trip.

 

Hmmm I’ll have to look at the map, didn’t see 84 earlier

 

AR has a lot of great roads that are perfect for a well handling vehicle. Part of the reason I didn’t mind taking the Nissan for this one, left the swaybar off the taco last time and it’s a little rolly right now.

how does the Lexus handle anyway? Built like a steakhouse, handles like a bistro?

 

That's a good way to put it. It handles well for a 6,500+ lb behemoth.

The best thing for me to do is to (not screw up) and keep the wheel and tire weight between 70 to 75 lbs. Need to keep spinning dead weight to a minimum for quick braking, starts, and slaloms.

 

Gotta give Futurama credit for that one, those writers are geniuses. Never would have guessed 6500 lb though, those Lexus badges must be real metal.

75 lb doesn’t seem too bad considering the size of the tires.

 

If we can hit that bullseye the rest of the dominos will fall like a house of cards, checkmate

 

Well if you're gonna mod, you want to prioritize bang for the buck.

Light bars, red shackles, chrome delete, shovel and hi-lift mounts.

I wonder what the biggest tire you can run without lifting is?

 

Zapp has some of the very best lines

 

You forgot the ReAl MoDz like raptor lights, all weather mats, fire extinguisher, and whatever Meso can muster up.

Being an Amazon Prime member helps too

 

Oh shit, Raptor Sentra

 

All is for naught without an instagram sticker
