1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

Yeah, it lights up like it should. It's never thrown a code during my ownership, but another OBD check couldn't hurt. It's been almost a year since I had a mechanic do that.

got the stock RR diff lock button here

 

Oof 15k?

4R's are softer than Tacoma's

 

As a teenager I played hockey in a rink with locker rooms that had toilets lined up like that, lawd have mercy on anyone's soul that was brave enough to take a dump when the whole team was around.

 

yeah he's asking way too much, relatively new listing so I bet he will come down a lot over the next few weeks. Not really interested in a 4 banger though

There's a Limited 5spd with e-locker for sale in Long Beach, that was another combo I didn't know of. He wants like 16k but for a limited 5spd 4x4 with 3.4l I can understand

 

I was surfing craigslist yesterday, and was just in complete awe of the resale value on these 20-30 year old "economy" vehicles.
It seems the used car market is coming back down, but not the Toyotas. I was seeing some very very cool vehicles in the $3-7k range that I'd never have guessed my truck would outvalue.

 

I'm always like:



When I hear one of y'all payed $500 - $1500 for a taco.

 

Don’t remember. Grand Junction Auto Recyclers LLC. Just remember showing up excited I’d found an R150F and then popping the hood and seeing a 2.7. I had just purchased the flatbed and knew it’s transmission was toast.

 

LOL yeah could have been the same one. Looked at a green 4wd 2.7 base model in Junktown that a guy I worked for was flipping. A woman had peeled the driver door off at a gas pump and even though it was repaired professionally I didn't feel like it was a $5k vehicle with peeling clear and a ratty base interior lol

 

especially when he had the doors and jamb color matched on the driver side but didn't bother to have the hood or roof repainted at the same time

 

Oh we all took shits, sometimes the whole place was packed.

29 palms is setup like that, even the head near the small PX out there.

You don't know true friendship until your buddy on the toilet next to you lends you his hand to squeeze as you attempt to release the demon that's about to rush full force out of your ass that was a chicken and cheese burrito with extra sauce

 

Yeah you can get the e locker in the same combinations found in the Tacoma. Just don't let sellers mistake you with their own mistake by saying it has an e locker when really it's just the center locker. This is applicable from 2001 and up until you get to 4th Gens and only later models had it available.

The center lock just puts you into actual 4x4. Pressing the 4WD button on the transfer case knob puts you in 4H but allows the driveshafts to spin at different speeds from each other which essentially is AWD.

YESSSSS

I was just playing jungle gym with one helping to flip a big ass 10' by 7' stainless steel frame

So fun

 

Think that's one of the first stories of mine I've shared on here

 

I bought mine for 2k!










But it was only the 4cyl and the engine needed rebuilt, all the steering bushings were worn out and clutch was toast

 

Mine was $400 more and I got a great clutch**, decent suspension and only ONE burnt valve. What a deal!*







* and a rusty frame.
** Still working at 227,000 miles

 

I paid $2,250 for a 1-owner, clean 4R

 

Thats a great deal if you were also allowed to keep your eternal soul.
