1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

That's my foveate part. When they all try to leave at the same time. I am glad we cant see fireworks from our beach. They all head into South Lake Tahoe.

 

It's been five years since I worked with this clear 2k urethane. It takes 24 hours to dry and four days to cure before installation. I had more patience four years ago.

 

You know you have to screenshot this and show it to Monica

 

I'm sure she has seen my dyslexia enough.

 

Dude



Oct 17th new one is coming out!

 

We tried going to the beach today and it was like that too. Ended up finding like a secret beach where only locals go.

but on the way back we drove by all the cars illegally parked liker that and every single one had a ticket

 

I put it on the calendar. I still cant believe Stephanie came in like a sleeper and won that game.

 

Nooo shit

Using that chomp to move the star when Monica was right next to it...dick move

 

Oooh man just caught up to watch the latest House of the Dragon episode

Dang

 

What’s a fan clutch pulley holder

 

Idk it was kinda useless lol

 

Been a few hours; everything buttoned up and ready to go right

 

did he come in hot to the touch? molly and leo when I have him come in so warm you can feel the heat coming off their coat

 

Oh god, absolutely

He felt warmer than those plug-in blankets

 

I remember when i went to do my timing belt. Bought every tool on the tutorial. Now its all still new on the box because i havent done my timing belt yet

 

Anyone in construction here have a a good set of suspendeds for their tool belt.
I got my veto belt not thinking i would need some but after awhile im thinking i do. Might get the veto ones but trying to see my other options

 

I'm confused. @Ozark_RegCab So those bolts were so seized that you pulled the whole pulley out of the fan bracket? I've worked on some gnarly rusted out 5VZs (Michigan salt without being washed for 300K + frame splitting in half type of stuff) and haven't seen that before.

Some heat and a solid 6 point wrench and they always came out. Someone must've seriously torqued those down if they weren't budging. Congrats on getting it out though.

 

The bracket itself failed/broke

So I suggested a "while you're in there" in replacing the fan clutch

Think his actual fan got damaged too? Can't recall

But he was getting a high quote for what is a simple replacement

Think many of us are just glad he's doing it himself

This only builds confidence to do more work in the future

 

Oh okay. There's like no way to remove that fan bracket pulley/spindle with it attached to the vehicle so I didn't understand. Agreed on the DIY. Fewer and fewer honest mechanics so no sense in paying someone for that simple of a job.

 

@04Pre_Runner here's the carnage
