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

We are considering camping at Haywood's Hill Saturday evening before heading to T&T Sunday morning.​

This has been discussed on the TTC thread but I just remembered that not everyone follows that thread so I'll post here also.



This is the email I received as I was calling a little while ago.

Hello Fred,
I drive a 4 Runner myself.
Yes we do have availability.
I am not sure if you know where
we are located. We are very
close to the track. I will charge
each person $10 dollars. We except
cash only. Use google to find us.
Other maps lead to COTA track.
You will Enter COTA Lott M. Then
you will make a left turn. Look forward
to meeting you.

Thank you

Evelyn Haywood

She said we could come out anytime on Saturday. I told her that as soon as i figured out what time we would start showing up I would let her know.

So what do you think?
Do we want to give it a try?
What time should we show up?
Who wants to go?

I have to work so if my schedule goes like it should I can be there around 17:00 (5:00pm)

 

How much is this gonna cost me? I sixer, 12-pack? Decals...

 

A six pack of good beer, or ten cases of the swill @Misplaced Nebraskan drinks.

 

There is a key sequence that can turn it off on those.

 

who has more beer (or stuff labeled as beer) in this scenario...

 

but that does apply for most things

 

Shop rate is 24oz/hr, so a tall boy should do the trick. Now about these decals...

 

Repeat for those not following TTC thread.

Hey folks, upgrading to Icon coilovers soon (order placed 5/16/18), if anyone has interest in an OME lift send me a PM.

Will include:
Front Shocks - OME 90021 sport shocks (softer valving)
Front coils - 888 coils mid weight (with a bumper only or winch only)
Rear Shocks - OME Nitrocharger Sport 60091 shocks

Will NOT include:
OME Dakar rear springs, bushings or longer u-bolts
Trim spacer
FK29 - Rear carrier bearing drop fit kit

 

@Texoma quick question bout greaseing the leafs. I know not to grease portion of the bushing pushed into the leaf spring. But what about the bolts an outside of the bushing that slips into the frame?

 

never heard don't grease....always been told don't over grease. I think Energy suspension says to grease all when installing the poly bushings.......I always grease bolts...helps to keep them from rusting or galling.

Would like to know myself

 

Don't grease the bolts themselves as they don't need it. Do grease the bushings inside and out. With the bushings greased, the sleeves will slip right in.

 

Understood thank you going to attempt this tomorrow hope I don’t have a double hernia.

 

I have a set in the garage that need a good home.

 

How much you asking for them? I’d love to get rid of that light.

 

what is this black tape mod you speak of

 

Short ghetto piece of electrical tape to cover it.

 

Call if ya need anything

 

Will do

 

That’ll work when I get a chance to head south I’ll hit you up.
