    Welcome to Austin!

    We did have regular meets before the death cooties showed up, and we will again once the death cooties have been defeated.

    What part of town will we be stalking you in, and got any pics of that whip?

    I’m pretty hard to miss. Gun metal wheels, 33” hankooks and a horseshoe welded on the driver side of the rear bumper!

    Then I've probably already spotted you. I'm near Slaughter and Manchaca and am often running around in that area. You buy in the new Meritage homes, or are you in the mega apartment complex?

    No, debating on doing it on the floor at my house... in the dirt... :eek:. A guy at work said there was a rent-a-shop somewhere near work for $40 a day, fully stocked shop with a lift.

    That's not too bad at all! My coworker in Manor has a 60x40 shop with a 4 post lift that you drive up onto but I don't think it would work for this application because there's no way to let the axles drop down :notsure:

    Yeah I’ve got a day to think about it... haha. The front axle has to be able to be supported and drooped completely out, have to remove the Radius arms. Gonna be a bitch, but all the good shops are months out on booking.

    I did my 2019 F250 on the garage floor, I got some tall ass jack stands and supported from frame. I’d do one arm at a time to help keep axle aligned. Also have a ratchet strap with a big handle around, your front axle is probably going to shift one direction or another and that will help you line it back up.
