1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

Its also the perfect amount of shitbox that i wouldn’t mind beating on it

 

You always provide quality parts James

 

Chased the threads on the Land Cruiser, so I'm good now using the new M12 bolts.

Found 2 more M10 OEM bolts so I've got all 6 now for the sides.

 

I still vote for you putting the s-runner on the frame. You could make a very capable truck.

 

I was gunna buy a shitbox 5lug and swap the cab over.

but I decided i will never finish that then ill have 2 tacoma frames sitting at the shop lol

 

Noise was bearings maybe? They're both toast. Whenever I take apart starters the JIS head screws don't come out and are always really soft. So I go overkill and drill them out for a large bolt extractor. Got tired after the second one so the motor wasn't disassembled. New Denso sounds good and the truck starts great.

 

@Sperrunner

My entry into Klein...

 

Finally, new furnace is installed. I took the time after they left to clean everything and install a new condensate pump too since it seemed prudent to just have it all be new. Furnace has one of those fancy brushless three phase blowers that's super quiet and variable speed.

 

They're totally hit and miss for me, some awesome stuff, some overpriced stuff that's identical to a cheaper brand.

 

Oof. Your gunna be poor soon

 

Their electrician tools and the crescent wrenches is all i like.
Milwaukee for power tools
the rest is whatever

 

I use their punch down tool at work. Better than anything else at Home Depot and we can't buy online as a state agency. Also use their angle finder. Think that's it.

 

I'v got a set screw drivers and nut drivers that I have had for 25 years. They are still as good as the day I got them.

 

I just wanted a level with a strong magnet for setting stuff up to weld.

We use a level at work all the time.

I need to look into that ground clamp you mentioned on the phone one time, at least for my TIG welder.

 

Where da vans at?

 

Big blue levels or nothing

 

@Black DOG Lila

I think corroseal might be my new favorite thing to keep around. Possibly because it smells like elmers glue...

 

Their multitools are shit. The dikes are the best

 

As someone diagnosed I feel your pain.... I feel so bad for my missus having to put up with my 'moments' :/

I genuinely hope the best for you, it took us some time and maturity before we were okay. And no kids were involved......... do I can't offer any real advice
