1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

Okay fuck these things, that's finally in place...

 

I was just putting a face to a bunch if weirdos I met on the internet. Hardly strangers after 2+ years of BSing on here.


Though come to think of it thats probably the same way the FBI agents think when they bait sex traffickers on the internet...

 

Fuuuuck yeah

And frame is plated too

 

Makes me feel lazy, I've been driving around with Dakars in my bed since it got cold and I decided to wait until spring.

 

This is just a lengthy overly complicated Chevy 63 conversion. This could be done much easier but I decided it would be more fun on hard mode with the flexy shackle joints and frenched front main eye hanger.

 

The only thing I could salvage from yesterday's drone off-roading and drone test was some low res files that I used to extract the following pictures. The fix.video file was just a corrupt as the MP4 source. I can see the mud that I picked up. Had to wash it off last night.

Everything looks dead in winter.



The water was brown from all of the rain over the past few days.

Once I figure out what lift I have exactly, I'll have to bug you on the necessary add-ons.

I read something about caster correction plates and stuff?

I don't want more than 2" of lift so I'll need to figure the right springs for that too.

 

Last weekend at Rigs and Coffee some of the Jeepers were driving new Broncos.

 

You got my number, feel free to hit me up whenever or on here. You won't need caster plates for 2", actually only 2" save you from a lot of PITA shit. Just need some panhard correction brackets and you'll be minty

 

There was a post on another that said nobody should have more than a 3.5" rear lift. Well, I have one and drag the factory trailer hitch many times when going off-road. I could use a little more but don't want to get too far up over the 2" front lift.

 

Awesome.

Yeah I remember it uses a panhard bar now that you mentioned it.

I never did do the correction on the 4R; can't neglect the LC the same way

 

The PCK was a good investment. I like it.

 

Yeah you got two of em now haha. The delta one is a better design than Keith's.

 

They've been popping up here, and they look nice, especially the 2 door, but I haven't been in one. I don't have the patience for a 16-18 month wait though.
I was looking at used GXs and the prices in the market now for 14+ are nuts. If I were to go older I could take the time to look, but since the Tacoma is pretty much done, I'd like whatever I add to be new.
*If I were to add a Jeep though, I'm not doing that dumb wave.

 

Lol should've seen me drag my hitch at Moab, even at 2" of lift on 33's

That climb was super steep so it was inevitable really. Multiple times did I drag it really

 

Sidenote, I wanna see someone I know with an 80 do a Campteq, looks like I perfect solution for long trips. Just throwing it out there

 

LOL. We won't worry unless you start wearing ostrich-skin cowboy boots and get your hair highlighted.
