1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

Many thanks! I know Agile has the RIP setup although it isn't cheap. I need new springs and bags in the rear and a refresh up front before too long. What motor do you have in yours?

 

What?!

Mine rode like a Cadillac; the rear coil setup lends itself to drive way smoother (even on worn coils) than a Tacoma any day of the week

 

100%

 

But totally get the whole lacking motivation.

I find excuses to do things for others before myself, then get angry when I'm done doing what I can cause that means I have to face my own laundry list

 

It has really heavy spring rate coils, and even with the bags fully deflated the thing still rides like a lumber wagon.

I do think it's the tires more than anything though. They're 10 ply LTs, not what I wanted but the price was super right

 

I'm the same way haha. Mom got out of her lease and I was more than eager to tinker on the used car she picked up. My own stuff tho? It can wait indefinitely

Front end is basically falling out the runner. Struts are shot, rack is shot, LCA bushings are crumbling... But the lower ball joints are new!

 

Ahh, heavy coils make sense.

But 10 ply? I can never feel a difference; ran them on the Tacoma and 4Runner and run them in the Land Cruiser now.

 

@eon_blue

You watch tonight's episode yet?

 

I'll have to throw the other set of wheels and tires back on for shits and giggles. I'm pretty sure I remember it being a lot less harsh with those, but it's been a long time. Whatever garbage lift is in the front now isn't helping either, if I had to guess it's from RC, but the stickers were long gone when I bought it. Just a generic silver body

Once the Kings are in and I muster up enough motivation to do the whiteline LCA bushings I'm sure it'll be worlds better. I just wish it didn't need the rack too. The back can stay a little rough if the front is tolerable

 

Sounds like you got a lot to do, but at least it's easy work!

Here's to hoping the steering rack replacement goes well for ya. My damn power steering is leaking again and I can't push myself to diagnose it.

 

holy fuck why did I take a 4 hour nap at night

I just woke up lmao

 

And it's funny that I haven't cause I've had business cards for over 11 years from my last job.

Yeah, I'll get a batch going by looking for one those promos offering "xxx for cost of shipping" intros or something.

 

What do you give at home then if you overdraft 10% daily

 

I think this is the first time you both agree on the same topic


I agree tho, the requirement for fine motor dexterity is crucial for maintaining employment..... at least in our lifetime lol

 

Not yet, got home at 11pm and had to crash... Should be able to tonight though, was it good?

 

Oooooh yeah it was

 

Superbowl doesn't hold my attention and Nascar only turns left
