1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

No just length, width is identical from new to old

 

Meanwhile, me with my stupid spartan rear

 

AH, i've got plenty of second gen packs and a few first gen packs to hack up and use then

 

I'm not a fan of lunchbox lockers at all, but that's one of the better ones at least

 

Makes crawling over speeds bumps easy

 

my damn KAAZ feels like a welded diff in the mr2.

may as well do an offroad build

 

Ryan's been in it several times, and Wulf actually drove it like she stole it (literally, I had forgotten my ties at home an hour before ceremony).

It maybe engaged/disengaged 3 total times out of a whole week's worth of driving including fast tight turns, in and out of tight parking lots, and more.

The 3 of us believe the heavier rear end causes it to be much more forgiving whereas on a 1st Gen Taco (Ryan) or Jeep (Wulf) they were just horrible.

 

I think the 2nd Gen needs some icon billet arms and Fox shocks

 

Probably helps that the VLSD center diff keep torque on it all the time

 

im not keeping the second gen... so its getting 3rd gen offroad shocks and thats it. LOL

 

Especially going up and backing out of dirt piles construction workers leave out to flex on

 

Ah man

 

yea the blue 07 is to flip.. because it was stupid cheap.

the red 2002 is likely getting sold off too... since the 95 appeared.. and its rust free and a crunchy... but clean title

 

I just wanna get rid of that stuff and frt the icons rebuilt


Or maybe I should get rid of the icons and rebuilt the Fox stuff

undecided

 

Ahhh, we kept thinking it was the much heavier Everything.

Wulf told me how her Jeep would throw the rear end out in one direction or another; had to learn to drive again just to drive that Jeep. Welded diff would've been better (I have no such experience).

Ryan said his first Tacoma had a lunchbox locker and it'd engage constantly in parking lots.

 

i wanted to go ADS on the 95.. but icons fell on my lap and i have the top hats and the springs for it.. just need the shock rod replaced to make them fit the taco.. and valved a bit differently

 

Send Icon rears my way, they'll leak in 10k miles anyway

 

Just buy the Fox set and sell the front ones

they'll sell easy out there

 

I thought Dallas had "ADS"...wouldn't it make more sense for you to get those since you got the rest of the truck?

I mean, what's he gonna do, make his Ram worth that much more by throwing them in the back seat?

 

My stupid (for no reason that makes any sense) OCD would kick in by having Fox rear and Icon front.

But yeah I'll wait for you to decide what ones you keep.

I want to take up Zane and James' advice and rebuild my own in the future.
