Austin Area TW Chapter (all gens welcome, even T4Rs; heck, just make it a Toyota and we're good)

Oh yeah. That was messed up. The video/ dash cam was crazy.

 

Yea it was were not allowed here in Fredericksburg to drive through a low water crossing if water is on the road whether it's 1" or 1 foot they don't take chances here but only 2 routes that require driving over low bridges and the parents know the rules

 

Yo this is too true. I was driving back from Lubbock once and smashed a turkey south of sweet water. It stained my bumper so damn much I had to grind it down and repaint the fkr

 

Happy Thanksging all! Enjoy today!

Hey Chad where's the best place to buy maxtrac spindles I see everywhere sales them 569 with brake cables does it matter

 

Are uca needed for aliment even though your running with an extended spindle cause I know the rough country lift with extended spindles don't require changing out uca to obtain proper aliment

 

Marie @HeadStrong Off-Road will be able to take care of you. The spindles come with front brake lines and they sell matching rear sets as well.

Not if you just swap the spindles alone. If you add coilovers for more height than the 4" spindle lift then it will be a good idea to get aftermarket UCAs.

 

Well if I didn't have a wife that drove my truck to I would go maximum lift but I have to consider her to so I was thinking a 4/2 lift should clear 275/70/16 tire without rubbing and I saw Chad's truck at cnc and liked the stance the maxtrac spindles give so I was considering maxtrac spindles upgrading the shock haven't decided which brand yet maybe doing a add a leaf in the rear with a upgraded shock

 

A simple and effective setup would be

Front:
Maxtrac 4" spindles
Extended brake lines (included with spindles)
Bilstein 5100 shocks using your stock coils
Possibly upgrade your bump stops to super bumps

Rear:
Progressive 3 leaf AAL (obviously I would like to see you get a set of Dakar replacement leaf packs but they are relatively pricey)
Bilstein b110 extended rear shocks
Extended rear brake lines

 

That would clear a 275/70/16 tire without haven't to do cmc or cutting my front bumper that's the main issue im worried about

 

For sure.

 

Rear tires fit fine but a 1 or 2 inch lift would probably look better as for the front different story
