1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

But I'm not in denial of having any issues myself

That’s not even the priority anymore. It just leaks but works fine otherwise. I need to get rid of the clunking and vibration that makes it almost undrivable around town

 

@Speedytech7

If you haven't put together your latest build, spend the $11 for one of these



At $1.37 per degree Celsius difference, it is absolutely the best bang for the buck in terms of cheap but functional mods; even if it nets you as little as 4 degrees difference it's worth it in my book

The clamping system causes a bit of flexing and apparently Grizzly (the originator) engineered this bracket to prevent such flex making for a much more even contact with an attached heatsink

Didn't know wtf it was but I kept seeing them posted in one of my groups so I figured why not; Gamers Nexus did thorough testing on multiple setups netting as much as 9+ degrees difference



Edit: of course it'd help if I included some info on it

Works for that 12th Gen; using it on my 13th Gen and is the same socket type up to a 14th Gen

 

I have a slow leak in my rack. But it helps me keep the fluid fresh. Perpetual change cycle.

@Kwikvette Just went searching through your post history regarding your old Tacoma and it’s OME setup. Did you have any highway driveline vibes or install pinion angle shims?

I'm upgrading to the new OME leafs they released recently and putting my old set on my flatbed for now. Figured I’d tackle my 60-68mph highway vibes while I’m at it.

 

Say no more fam

 

Keep in mind, OME released a better leaf pack beginning with an 'EL' designation.

I had the older style, but no I had absolutely no vibration whatsoever and I never installed any shims. Never had to -

 

I said I was upgrading to the new model OME pack in the post you replied to lol. But yeah I’m going to go back to no shims most likely. I misdiagnosed my old vibrations because I assumed my BFG KO2s would stay balanced for more than 5 seconds. I now suspect my vibes are at least partially caused by my 3 degree shims. Some less than scientific testing involving the removal of my rear driveshaft for a test drive further support that theory.

Thanks.

 

Yep just reiterating!

They have a bigger stack right? Supposed to flex better?

Edit - I keep forgetting you have 2 Tacoma's

I’ve already purchased the new OME leafs. Just haven’t installed on my double cab yet.

Once they’re on I intend to just slap the old OME set I take off (with the additional overload leaf) on my flatbed. It’s been running some Frankenstein stock leaf setup with lift blocks. The blocks prevent me from using my emergency brake which has been annoying and the leafs are starting to invert.

 

Nice, yeah had to edit my post above cause I forget you have 2 trucks

Must be nice

Did you ever weigh your flatbed, as in just the flatbed itself?

 

Nah. It’s welded to the frame so I can’t be bothered. The engine is also on its way to dying. I’m just hoping it gets me to whenever my brother gives me his 03 Tundra.

 

@eon_blue

Counting my blessings until he becomes a picky eater

He loves his peas and carrots, ravioli, curry, sweet potato, paella, and anything else we give him

He enjoys shrimp just as much as bananas, and he's chowing down on mac n cheese as we speak

 

Fuck, he's learned to feed the dogs

 

yeah Dex knows to hang out under the dining table whenever Sofia is eating, he's guaranteed snack time as well

 

Bronx is still good at knowing to stay away from our eating area, and just chills

Biscuit though is too attached to me, which means she'll always be close to Theo, and well because she's always with us, finds it entertaining interacting with Theo all the time

But yeah, this is the start of her getting all the yummy food he gets
