1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

Did some dinner prep today, vaccine, brand and testy bands

 

We have the technology

 

Fixed my intercooler yesterday and today I decided to try and make the rev limit spicier, it's admittedly still very tame in a standstill but if you lay into it with load and boost like pinning it in 1st and 2nd it turns into gunshots.

This guy's shifting makes me cringe, but I can't help but enjoy the sound this 2.0 makes

 

Like...for the sake of argument let's say it turns out she wasn't...who tf cares? Does he just really, really want that hour of his life back from having to do a book report on her on 4th grade or what

 

I think I just want to meet the kind of person that buys a Hyundai Kona and then has thoughts like this

 

jesus some lady opened her front door and 2 Chihuahuas came blasting out right at us, Dex freaked out and pulled hard trying to run away lol.

 

The horrible freight welder strikes again, this time were welding aluminum to steel on a sloppy eBay transfer case shift linkage on my 94 f150

New part had a lot of play and the truck was missing parts to begin with so the function of this part was negated so I welded the slop out of it

Running lincoln flux core wire out of the classic $100 harbor freight welder across Chinese aluminum and steel yielded acceptable* results surprisingly enough

*Acceptable being two loosely fitting pieces became one solid piece

 

My fuckery knows no bounds

But surprisingly it works beautifully,I can now shift my truck into 4x4 high at greater than 8% success

 

The logic pours in, but the resistance continues

Viva la résistance

 

It's a sad day when you have to take your own dogs man card.

 

Everyone started so soft too, but they understand now I think. He don't get it, he won't get it.

I'm not paying for motorcraft parts for this truck... If they even exist which is also another roadblock sometimes

The eBay replacement was somehow sloppier than the 30 year old original out of the box... So make it solid

If it fails spectacularly somehow oh well it's 2 bolts and a snap in bushing to replace again

 

not you

 

No you're good

You actually get your hands dirty and do stuff

 

Dex is pretty much a cat in a wolf suit
