Cap City Build & BS AF

@srdoublecab2.7

​

Thanks for liking my OP!!!!!

 

Heck yes! Austin guys gotta stick together!

I was looking up your lift specs im about to pull the trigger on some maxtrac spindles and some anodized red devil horns!

I see some of your pics are taken near the lakeway marina launch ramp, you live in the lakeway area?

 

OH shit man, I didnt even notice you were a local!!!!!!!!

I live in south Austin - My dad lives on Lakeway Blvd -BUUUUUUUUUT, my mom is a member at the Lakeway Boat Club. We take out a Mastercraft just about every weekend (except this one unfortunately)

Ive been out on Travis, Buchanan, and Lake Austin ever since i was born!!!!


I looooooooooooove my Maxtracs man!!! I would suggest skipping blocks and AAL's in the back and just getting the Dakars. I feel really good knowing that my shitty stock leaf packs have been replaced with something that could actually handle a load without bottoming out all day.

We need to have a meet up dude!!!!!!

 

About to detail the truck and then take baby out for date night. Much love everybody. Will check back in this evening!

 

I see you have been busy on your build. I finally got around to modifying my joystick shifter. I gave up on it since mine didn't thread right up to the shifter and would sit too high with barely any support. Had to add some hardware to make it functional and solid. Thanks again for the idea man.

 

I've been watching Bad Lip Reading's for a while, they're really funny & it's amazing to me how they put word to match the people's mouth. I thought I'd share their latest, it's better than the actual debate. Haha

Before I forget to do so, here are pictures from when we first moved in around March/April and closed in the property. 550 lf of fence all done by yours truly, the wife and some of her family. It took us 4 weekends to complete. Now we are replacing the metal fence along the front reusing the existing metal posts to creat a horizontal fence. We didn't want it to be like a fortress with a 6'+ tall fence all the way around.






Here is what's left this weekend:



Not going to F1. Friend of mine isn't even going tomorrow or Sunday. Said It's really lame this year and things are more expensive than last year. LAME.

 

shit. 550? i thought mine was a lot at 300.

 

Yes we need to meet up! And yeah I want to order full dakars for the rear, this is just the beginning of my suspension set up, i have a brand new set of 285s sitting in the garage im waiting to put on lol

hit me up sometime well get something going!

 

Sweet man!! Sounds awesome!

I'm planning on some nice coilovers at some point but there list is so long who knows what's next lol.

 

Theres always a long list! I blame this forum for that lol

Yeah Im just about to order the basic Maxtrac 4/2 lift and extended brake lines for the rear to start with. The kit is on Amazon for $540, i figured start there then Dakars and Bilstein 5160s in the rear, and COs and UCAs in the front way down the road haha

How long have you had your spindles for? any tips on install lol

 

hello @ChadsPride

 

I wish it was 300 looking back. Shit ton of work but in the end when we let the dogs out for the first time in their new closed yard made it all worth it.

 

Got all the kegs home safely for next weekend.



On tap this year is:

512 IPA
512 Pecan Porter
Live Oak Hefeweizen
Hops and Grain Zoe
Real Ale Hans Pils



If any of y'all from the Austin Area would like to come you're more than welcome. Send me a PM on here for information. Only rule is you must have a costume

 

Damn sounds like you are ready for one hell of a party!

 

Epic halloween party!!

 

Hell yeah!!! So excited for this year. A lot of people are going to camp in their own tents or in the 2 tepees that will be setup. We can't wait!!!!

 

Dude, I'm serious. If you just call Marie at HeadStrong Offroad. She will make a custom kit for you so you can ditch the blocks and get good shocks for the rear with the Dakars.

 

I'm gonna go as @ChadsPride!!!
