1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

Mud/clay you need momentum

 

This.

 

I think it would serve you well to join a 4x4 club and get more experience with how different trucks, with different setups perform in different terrain.

Exactly. You don't see someone tip toeing through muck on bloggers haha

 

this.

get enough speed in a 2wd and u can make it. ask me how i know

 

The magic 8 ball?

 

We tried

 

I’d like to go out with @CS_AR if I could the next time they go out.

 

@Sebz13

NO FUCKING WAY some "fabricator" made this for someone when he asked for a bumper lol; dude is in Hawaii

 

I mean... If the customers budget is $200 it makes sense lol

 

Oh for sure

That's $10 in paint, $15 on lights, and about $30 in steel. Rest is labor and profit.

But he never stated what he paid, budget, etc lol just came in saying it wasn't what he wanted or discussed

To be fair, he could've said "no more than". I've rejected jobs that had ridiculous budget requirements...maybe I should've taken one up and done a similar job

 

Not yet I don't think. But it may be working and I just don't know its happening. I'm trying to stay out of the deep mud until I finish moving everything. When I pull back the plastic for the pinch-weld mod, there was no evidence of mud or dirt behind the liner. Some guys have looked at and said they doubt that its ever been off-road. One of our member's wife nailed it I think when she said lit looked like it had belonged to a petite female pharmaceutical rep that ran up a lot of easy miles. Near as I can tell it lived in an area around Syracuse Indiana and most likely did a lot of driving to Indianapolis.

I've been out with a bunch of ATRAC 100 guys and the front locker was necessary to keep up with them.

 

Yeeeeep

That reminds me of the annual "why arent there more 1st gen aftermarket bumper options" post which is self explanatory by the same people saying they wouldn't pay more than $500 shipped for a bumper lol

 

plus the larger lugs and voids that different MT from AT are exactly for the purpose of ejecting mud

idk i just sat around in a tire shop a lot as a kid, i don't even wheel

 

I got a nicer custom rear bumper than that for my Tacoma for $125 lol. Granted it was 7 years ago and the kid that made it was maybe 20 years old

 

One of our lighting packs at the studio stopped working, at least this one didn't explode like a 12 gauge in a small enclosed room when it went. But Samys says it will cost more to fix than it's worth, oh well. Gonna print this out and slap it on there, stuff it in the back of storage

 

A long time ago I lived on the 19th floor corner apartment of this building in Jersey City. A sculptor lived in the floor above. The bedroom was the corner with the big window. The sculptor would wake up at 2:00 AM and start chiseling on some work. Drop the hammer on the floor and make all kinds of noise.

 

yup, noooo thank you. And a big no thank you to those kinds of high rise living complexes, I know some people dig the hustle and bustle of urban city life but not I

 

Eggs are 10 bucks for 12 here.

and meth prices arnt going down either

 

But at least the more meth you take, the less eggs you want to eat

 

or the more meth you smoke. The more eggs you can steal.
