1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

Yeah, all Toyota A motors are non-interference

 

half off sale?

 

Xbox Elite Series II controller feels way more solid than their other variants; it's especially noticeable in the thumbsticks.

The adjustable triggers are a nice welcome but nothing I'd use just yet.

 

Hell NO. That's the hooptie. Staple that belt back together, slap it back in and call it good.

 

i mean the belt is half off right

 

Couldn't help myself, went for a drive in the AMG in the blizzard. Ain't got no grip, but fun to slide.

 

I see people talking about eating raccoons allll the time, watch your backs

 

Its BBQ. They call it racoon. It might have been racoon way back when that and possum were all they could get to eat.

 

When reading about what wheel studs to use on the front to get more turns on the lugs I came across a few various sizes but I couldn’t discern which ones really work on oem style lug nuts vs. wheel spacers / acorn lugs.

Many sources said Matrix wheel studs were the ones to go with, but when I got one / looked at this 2nd Gen thread, it looked like the shank might stick out too far and the lug nut would bottom out on it prior to clamping the wheel to the rotor surface. Anyone have personal experience using some besides the ARP $$$$$ ones that work with stock lug nuts?

These are the ones I got (to try)

Just got mine back will have to update in a bit to see how the steering feels. Finding new rack bushings in a PITA.

 

Did you see the ones I posted? For a Tacoma one anyway

 

Yeah that ain't supposed to look like that....



Tried to eat an oil pump bolt that fell out

 

Yeah, 485K miles will do that. Here's to 750K.

 

I think I'm done with led lights. Driving around tonight and passed a lot of sick cars. Drive around one accident. All in 4 miles from home.

Yea I'm cheaper than solo... I just have a lead time of 4-6 weeks usually

 

Yeah, one of the downfalls of LEDs is they don't generate enough heat to melt snow and ice.

 

I have the Matrix studs on one rear axle with disks. the shoulder of the stud causes fitment issues with most wheels because the wheel hub is not thick enough but works just fine for spacers

 

Right that’s what I was thinking - I have spacers but don’t want something that keeps me from taking them off if I decide to at some point. Thanks.

Do you have any idea what does besides the ARP IS ones? The Matrix ones are like $30 ish for 2 corners - ARP is $100. I’m not that desperate lol. Putting on new hubs so figure it would be easier to do it now than when they’re installed.
