1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

Just don't get complacent please... I've known 3 people personally that were blue collar guys across different fields that got soft with their respect (because they had be doing it for so many years) and ending up getting seriously hurt

 

5100s or OME are the most recommended for bang for the buck.

There are no "medium" or "heavy" duty Dakar's; simply a Dakar leaf pack with the option of an AAL.

Height up front will be determined by; perch used and the coil.

Not much to a first gen

 

I already knew this, did you mean to quote the other guy?

 

Yep. Complacency kills. There was a big push at the RR i worked at to be keen on watching the guy next to you because its so easy to have a lapse of judgement.

This was a place where only 7 people dying in a year was a good year.

 

I know you know, but just throwing out there the commonly repeated info that is received in every lift thread

 

I'd sell them to you cheap, but won't offer them to the other guy. Could end up killing them like the other guy that killed his Fox shocks after I told him months ago to go with longer bump stops.

 

Yeah you can never get to comfy at work.

 

That fookin guy. Well I'd buy em! Having that sit on my shelf would force me to get rear leafs sooner and I'd do my lift.... still currently trying to rebuild a steering rack I pulled from a junkyard to care of my leak

 

In school there was a dude who dropped a full ass bottle of argon with a regulator on it... No cap

Broke the lense off the regulator guage when it hit the wall

 

I've read a lot of them before posting about it. Budget is whatever is appropriate. If I only need to spend ~$1200 to get everything that's right for me, that's great. If it behooves me to go higher end sure, but I don't think my intended use warrants it. I'm up in Buffalo, NY and have some land I roam around on in summer and snow. But mostly just daily'ing for work

Wondering where people source coilovers from, and what spring rate? Also forgot to ask: will I need taller bump stops? at what height will I need that brake line relocation?

Oooohhhhhh yea



That topper is as old as that van probably a 00 or 01

 

I can't wait to own property so I can start my own van junkyard

@Running Board Man @04Pre_Runner can you confirm? https://www.instagram.com/p/CJ6rMZbhOyj/?igshid=10jkd8lzttkgt

 

Maybe... It's only snowed 2x in my life where I live and there aren't any slopes near me

 

Corpus is the nearest place to me that looks like they're hiring

 

It's popular to hit these "slopes" at the local high school stadium with trash can lids, rafts, kayaks, etc. Where I grew up we didn't have many hills that weren't filled with cactus lol. It also only snowed once in the 14ish years I lived down there.
