DFW BS Thread : ********NEW MEET!! CHECK POST #1*******

Just curious. Thought I recognized a username, but I was mistaken.

 

Just pulled the trigger on a suspension upgrade from Accutune.

Who wants to help me install it?

 

When/where?

What all did you order? Everything minus the alignment can be done in your driveway.

 

I probably won't have the stuff for a few weeks. It should be mid to late June when it gets here. I might have to wait until I get back from my road-trip though. It's in mid-July. But then again... If everything is here, there is a three day weekend around the 4th of July.

I got the Fox 2.5 coil overs for the front.
Fox 2.0 w/LSC in the back.
Icon AAL, mini-pack.
Icon UCA.
U-bolt flip.

I figured that it could all be done in my driveway. I also figured that it might be a fun way to do a meet. I'll find a place to do my alignment before I get started on the install.

 

Not sure where you are at but I have a garage and enough tools to get it done. I'm located in Allen. Did a friend's Ranger two weekends ago.

 

Well... It just happens that I'm also in Allen. Can I let you know when I have all of my stuff in?

I have the tools and could probably do it all myself. It usually goes a little easier when you have another person to help.

 

Anyone here an electrician by trade? If so, I am wanting to add a generator transfer switch to the house and did not know if anyone would be interested in it. I don’t have a “go to” electrician for my home and would like to use someone on here if they are interested. Located in Plano of that helps as well.

 

For sure. I'm around most the time since my GF and I both work from home.

 

had a great weekend at lake whitney. Left Friday in the rain. Beat the rain home. And the weather was great all weekend!

 

Good deal. How did it handle? Looks like it would suck in the wind?

 

Surprisingly it seemed to do pretty good. But I kept it between 65/70 mph...

 

You have to photograph enough “evidence” to prove your point. Don’t include the frame in the pics, but plenty of zzzrt, zpzpzpzp, and fffffffpt will get the point across. If the trailer is in poor enough shape, it’ll likely be “custom” anyway.

 

Maybe I just ran into the most anal retentive lady in Johnson County registration, on her worst day... she wasn’t having any of it. I ended up giving it away because it wasn’t worth it to me to mess with anymore. I’ll just build another one someday and definitely document a bunch of arc flashes and grinding sparks to prove I did it.

 

Maner and I have a few trailers in line to revamp. I’ll let you know it goes. Both are pre regulation, so it’ll be a real treat.

 

If the trailer ever had plates or was previously registered, bring that paperwork.

Mine had been expired for a while, but they were able to transfer it and renew without any issue or inspection.

 

So, who’s got a Blackstone? Thoughts?

 

Anyone have a detailer with availability?

Either mobile or in/near Fort Worth.

My usual guy is booked up through end of June.

 

I really enjoy mine, keep griddle surface oiled well, covered and away from rain and it easy to up keep. Seems like it would be a nightmare if it rusts.

 

Found a random spot to get the tires wet on the Brazos this weekend, had lunch at Mary's Cafe in Strawn and finally got to see the Baker Hotel in person.

 

Mineral Wells is a cool area. The SP is one of our favorites.
