1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

Was just for running trails; you building a crawler? Keeping it stock?

 

I just remembered I saw one of your 4R just the other day. Yesterday? The left front was about 6' in the air.

It is totally unmolested and will stay stock. I already have an amazing offroad rig.

 

Bitchin

 

5-6' yeah

Probably in the calender.

Nice

That's how I got mine, original owner...but I had extra parts so I threw them on within 2 weeks of ownership so

I get it. I totally understand the need to modify.

 

That need grew tenfold when I first drove it; way smoother and more controlled in the rear? Hell yeah!

Plus swapping rear coils is way cheaper than going through multiple leaf packs.

 

There’s a solid axle specific section here too.

@Empty_Lord

Trying DRG

 

@Speedytech7 when making or repairing battery cables do you crimp or solder

 

Ketchup

 

Dunno. We ended up running short on time so went for dinner and a beer…works for me!

 

Now I get why @Empty_Lord loves this game so much

 

ooooo hahahahaha

 

Crimp

 

What crimper do you use? Hydraulic?

I just repaired the terminals on my f450... all of them were garbage that didn't tighten to the battery posts

I just heated the lugs with a torch to melt them full of solder and shoved the cables into them, im aware this isn't the right way to do it but it's what I could have done today and it fixed the problem

 

Yeah just the harbor freight hydro crimper. It does a good job if you use the die two sizes too big, then one size too big, then the right size. I do that to get a good inward press rather than where it makes a bowtie.

 

I'll check it out

 

@Kwikvette

do it

 

Damn tou
