1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

They come with spacers. The ones he sent are a wee bit too thick. So I used a socket. So it’s a little bit too far out, but I’ll turn the spacers down and get him measurements to open another sellable mount for him

 

A442F and the 91-92 had the A440F which was all hydraulic. The A442F also known to Mitsubishi; Hino (big truck Toyota), and a few others as the AW450-43LE, is a super heavy duty automatic transmission. It features electronic timed shifts, 4 gears, oversized torque converter, oversized clutch packs and 1/2nd gear bands, straight cut 1st gear (loud but strong), and many other things I'm forgetting. Despite only being in the US LC for 2 years it was in every diesel version of the 80 and 105 cruiser as well as various 70 series, the mega cruiser, a few light passenger busses, all manner of Mitsubishi and Isuzu heavy trucks... It's the only reason I considered an auto LC. It's build is entirely different from the later A340 derived A343 that was in the later 80 and 100 and it has about 175lbs of weight difference to prove it. It's one of the few Toyota transmissions to come with its own independent trans controller computer too.

 

Awesome. Sounds like a win-win

 

Whaddayamean you're 'forgetting'?? That wasn't a copy and paste?!

 

Lol, look at it compared to the pallet, I was joking. It's from a Volvo long haul truck, pretty sure it's a last gen Cummins though. Came in at work

 

Nope, just off the top of my head. Had the longer AW450 name saved on my phone though because it's an easier way to find parts in the USA for the A442 since it was only available for two years in one vehicle under that designation.

 

Lmao you putz, I'm looking at a little phone pic. And couldn't just glance a pic and identify like you nerds.
You want to build a seperate 1FZ? I know of one sitting around that I'm sure the owner would sell. Just sitting in a garage. Had like 250k miles if I memba

 

I do, been looking for one, but it's kinda rare in the PNW that an LC gets parted out and if it does Torfab is so close they almost always beat me to parts.

 

I wasn't even talking about the model names.... All those other details! I thought for sure it was from wiki Lmao dude

 

I don't think they have any useful info on the A442 besides that it exists and has 4 gears haha

 

Looks like I didn't oversee that spelling good enough.

 

I'm gonna try and get some help to remove my canopy tomorrow. Sick of looking at it, I have a truck dammit, not some grandpa elongated SUV bastard creation.

 

Uhhh that a jab at me?

 

It is now

 

I understand this sentiment.
Softopper >

 

This hurts.
I think it looks good

 

Throw it out to whoever takes the bait??!! You meanie

 

I wanted a soft topper so bad when I had my green truck before I got the RTT. I actually still want one but it's still problem with an RTT. We will see what my home built rack yields. Maybe I can get some canvas upholstry done for the sides to snap on and off.

 

It does, it'll look better when it's primer matched.

 

Hey man. It may be primer.

but I had them grind things near it to add some metallic flakes.
