Thanks guys! I was informed that I am in the final cut of candidates so...

 

Hey messed up on username @ryanbitt you still want that sd card?

 

Well hell yeah!! What time you rolling through South Austin near Slaughter lane?

 

Text inbound! ​

 

Bout 8 am Sunday morning an 10-1030 on way back.

 

Again who's all going to the Brewery run tomorrow? I plan to go to the more local one like Twistedx and Jester King.

 

I'll be there.

 

Ill be there as well for the whole run except the camping part. Im gonna drive home and then enjoy all the beers i will buy from all the breweries

 

I too have one of these.. if it's allowed for filler, it's fair game (not really)

 

@TX_Lucian are you South or North. @riz_atx looking forward to meeting ya. I wont be joining for the camp out either.

 

This is really nice. I wish my garage was tall enough to do the same thing. Right now our RTT is living on top of the 4Runner but it needs to come off not only to save on gas but the life of the RTT. I've seen a few ideas out there on how to install and remove a RTT outside but just not sure yet on which direction we'll go to get ours on and off. Here is what I've seen online:

Installing steel like this guy did makes me question how he tied into the existing framing and how much extra load that is putting on the A-Frame. I've tried reaching out to the publisher of the video that's online but no response.


This image is taken from a Youtube video. Its basically a huge saw horse:






Anybody have any other ideas on getting it off?

 

An engine hoist could work if it was tall enough i think...

 

Mount that sucker on an Expo trailer.

 

I'm so horrible with names. Argh - I know he was at the last T&T... But....Spotted in the wild on the way home today..

 

I'm on the North side, up close to Pflugerville. And yeah, it should be a lot of fun...I will just be doing the drive tomorrow, no camping / HF on Sunday.

 

I doubt I'll stay the night. If anything I'll sleep in the truck to avoid bringing extra gear.

Super stoked about this shin dig.
Just over 120 on the going list as of noon.
Even if 25% show it'll be a big group.
Personally I'm going for the diversity and change of pace.

 

Is that Slater?

 

Edit - Wait....that.....isn't Slater. ( @Ryanlaughland )

But that's who I was thinking of. Slater has the TRD OR wheels (those are SCS), and Slater's is the 'Maximum Effort' DeadPool badge.
