1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

I live by my own rules.

 

-me mere hours before driving my truck into a flooded ditch

 

So parts ordered off the vin of my 98… I got a 5 lug transmission mount and a set of cab mounts that don’t remotely fit. Wtf?

 

Cab swap on the 98 from a 5lug?

 

I’m getting too old for loud parties. Oof. Me and the cat hiding the basement

 

Trucks a 98 TRD offroad according to the vin. I got the right uppers and springs. Something weird

 

Heads are off. Cam bucket things are safely marked/stored away for now. I'm guessing I should remove the rest of the valve train if I plan on taking them to the machine shop next week. Haven't ever messed with valves on a Toyota so further research is required...

 

For being on Ebay for 20 years, I'd say I've had a good track record for buying or selling.

Ordered this -



And got this



Maybe I'll get the right ones sent? Maybe I'll get a refund? Who knows. I'll figure a use for them.

 

Not to long after this is was fidgeting with the pull tab off a can and sliced my own finger open

 

But it's square and weldable

 

You're square and weldable

 

oh?

 

Idk I'm tired

Class ended an hour early today but holy fuck it was a cluster just making a quick trip to Home Depot before going home

Picked this up based on @Yota X recommendation

 

I should have bought one of those way earlier than I did. So so handy.

 

Contemplating buying the Swag Press Brake kit, and buying the HF 20 ton press.

That'll allow me to bend anything I cut on the table...but who am I gonna make skid plates for anyway?

 

But really, it doesn't hurt just having a bunch of tools.

Yeah, fuck it I'll buy the press and stuff

 

I have looked at those kits too, definitely on the list of maybes. Someday I’d like to build some toolboxes for my flatbed, but that’s pretty far down the list.

 

I have a clone and I've used it for so many random projects around the house haha

 

Another foot of Sierra Cement .

 

Man, Battlefield is way too fun
