1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

That's fine, I'm not concerned with what it rolled out of the dealership with. But the sticker is whats most likely to influence what t-case gear you got.

 

Had to peel off some paint but it was definitely 225/75.

Guess my best bet is to drive a known distance and see what the odometer says.


I'm on 35s now, but before that might have gained me a few unknown mpgs

 

You have a 99, so speedo correction is super easy... plug n play and you can adjust until it's spot on

Fair point. My speedo seems to be accurate on 31s anyway. Do you think the dealer would have swapped the gear if they changed the tires when sold new?

 

It's possible, it takes more time, effort, and money to change a spare tire than it does to change that gear.

 

Hmm, interesting.... I might actually be down to install that

 

That must just be a hall effect pulse counter right? And just deletes every 200th pulse for each .5%?

 

Yeah I do believe this is one of the few times toyota uses a hall effect system over a reluctance system. Better than Nissan with their stupid optical sensors. It's .5% adjustment... so I'm not sure if it is removing pulses or generating an entirely new PWM output

 

Drained the radiator beforehand. Lost not even half quart

 

Last year my work burnt 1.6 million gallons of diesel while drilling and completing wells

 

What company?

 

Gotta spend oil tuh make oil

 

They’re dropping some $$$$ rn

 

Hope they have a corporate discount

 

Been there!

 

Tim sure makes it look easy... What did I do wrong? The inner sleeve came out easy, the bushing on the other hand - pain in the ass and I think the neighbor wanted to call the fire department. I also killed a screwdriver.






Maybe I should've just left the original in.

 

Duro bumps makes a good bushing you simply slide into the inner sleeve after you brush off the rubber bits

 

I know the feeling.. I watched that video and figured I'd have zero issues since I bought a set of used CA arms.... wwwwooooooo buddy was I wrong. Here's a montage of my comedy of errors, I eventually had to pull out the oxy acetylene and carefully burn the outer sleeves out

 

Yeah, why I ordered them . I'm going to kill the rest of it with fire and then follow up with something like this. Hopefully, that will do the job.

Ouch, definitely feeling the same pain you endured.
So you actually removed the outer sleeve? I thought that was supposed to be left in (according to the instruction PDF) -

 

It wasn't that hard when I did it...

Part of the trick is to find a press adapter so the jack pushes on the outer sleeve. If you push on the inner sleeve, the rubber just stretches. A bit of heat helped, too.

That depends on the bushings you're installing. Energy Suspension keeps the original sleeve. Whiteline replaces it.
