1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

looks like a classic ball joint failure

 

Land Cruisers are the worst

 

I thought that at first but the wheel/tire looks still in place, just judging by it's place in the wheel well. Didn't get a good gander though, the guy looked pretty pissed off lol.

 

It's like the 5th Gen 4Runner owners all over CA, except this owner's got more money to throw away than the 4R owners.

 

That F150 "just let me die"

 

My step brother got on the land cruiser train last year and bought an FJ80. Had it for like 3 months, did the suspension and got it all setup and was like fuck this thing. My 1st gen drives better, off roads better and is faster. Sold that POS.

 

That F150 got a life sentence!!!

 

Someday

thing was 60k

 

You're going to tell me those cv shafts looking skinnier than the bones of that anorexic chick who wore a black hoodie everyday to highschool can turn 40s without breaking breaking going uphill in a headwind?

 

That was a oddly specific analogy

 

The puddle has me especially curious. Maybe something got stabby

 

Yeah, doesn't look thick like diff fluid.

 

IFS is better on road verus solid axle.

I just jumped on the LC train last month, but I also daily drove a solid axle truck for awhile too so it wasn't new to me.

4R definitely drove nice though, way better than a Tacoma.

 

That $120K can get you, for example, a decent condition FJ60 and the scratch to have Proffitt do a stage 2 restoration and also have em (or OLC) put a 2.8 in it.

 

Personally I'd want an FJ62



You prefer the round headlights?

 

Ill rock it

 

Did work supply baby seat provisions in the work van?

 

I can turn the airbag off

 

My step brother got the round headlight one before the fj80. It is sitting in his backyard now with a bad motor. lol.

 

I like em both. There is something about those headlights though...might be some of my 55 love seeping in/carrying over
