    I used to use Austin Automotive Specialists over in Lakeway when I lived out there. They were always honest and fair from what I remember. Other than that I have only used the stealership and Precision tune in CP

    I called Chad and he recommended the NTB down by the y in oak Hill. So I went by there and they were busy so I made an appointment for Wednesday. The guy there was knowledgeable about off-road vehicles and aftermarket upper control arms. He saw my previous settings at four and a half to five degrees of caster and said he should be able to do it

    Anyone know of any local spots that sell tops for tables/desk? Looking for an 18x31 top for a small working desk but have been striking out online.

    @lilred95 can probably make you one that would fit and work better than what you might find.

    Anyone know of any river or lake camping within 2 hours of Austin? I've got a small camper that I'd like to take out this weekend or soon if not this weekend. All state parks are booked and city parks are not open so just wondering if there are any hidden gems or anything. :fingerscrossed:

    Down to Bastrop there’s a state park (Bastrop State Park) that has a lake, camping, and tent sites near the lake. We used to go there with the scouts to stargaze.

    LOL. I grew up in Bastrop in Tahitian Village.

    It's a good park and spent a lot of time there. I haven't gone back to the park since the 2011 fires but I think most of it is still good.
