1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

@0xDEADBEEF

This dude is making a flatbed for his 1st Gen

Holy fucking added weight dude; look at all the square and rectangular tubing

 

He better be reinforcing the frame back there too

 

If he's a welder/fabricator, I'm sure he'll know to do that. Problem is, he's putting so much weight on it (for structural rigidity) that he ain't gonna have enough payload to carry anything.

I commented on that fact reminding him it's a light duty truck.

 

the bed is the frame reinforcement lol

 

Depending on the style you may just have to cut/break them and replace with new ones. They're basically zip ties

 

awwwww

 

Was watching a movie cuddled up with friends and passed the fuck out for like 2 hours. That was the best nap I think I ever had lmao I never sleep well especially not when napping

 

Ripped my front bumper off and drivers taillight out, and blew one of my coilovers this weekend. Poor truck

 

you wheel too hard or hit the mall too hard?

 

Bumper fell off busting snow drifts and then got ran over, coilover just had enough I guess

They work for what they do, which is saving 2 hours building any kind of appropriate mounting

 

HELL YEA HOSS ITLL BIFF OUT ANR RUN FOR EVAR

 

Goddam. Any idea what gauge steel that is? Even it’s something thin… that’s gonna be heavy. Especially if he slapped a diamon plate floor on it

 

He only posted the initial post, didn't come back.

But yeah regardless of the gauge, that much tubing is way too heavy. It's braced even more than shit I've seen on commercial trucks.

I'd venture to guess at least 1/8" based on the hard to see bead profile.

 

Lol. 1/8” is what I was guessing too. Easy to weld, but so heavy.

 

You're telling me.

Other than the 3/16" square tube (2" square) for the bumper, everything else is 1/8" cause it gets heavy quick.
