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

​

 

Eh not much progress than yesterday...still no reply from the CL guy so I may up my ante a little bit. If he doesn't respond by this afternoon I am gonna see about that one in Dallas. I wish he would piece it out because I don't need the springs or rear shocks now. Hopefully by the end of the weekend I can have something worked out.

 

If not just start piecing together the 5100 and OME kit. Buy a little at a time. If you go with the OR kit first you still have to pay to get them both on unless you do it yourself.

 

I agree in not wasting time or money on the stock suspension. Wait n save for what you really want.

 

Anyone interested in going to SWR on the 27th? Terrain is kind-of like Hidden Falls. GATOR is hosting the group i'll be with, head over to their FB page if you're interested in going as well.

 

Where's SWR located? I think that is the weekend of the SPI meet

 

SPI meet? Don't think i've heard of that.

Its in Llano, they're only open a handfull of times every year. The way the park opens is typically a Jeep club inquires, then get special permission to open the park. Then its open for the public that weekend, but your group has to be pre-approved. Walk-ups have to join a pre-existing group with a trail lead whose been in the park before. They take it very seriously; the property is normally used as a big game hunting ground. However, the people there are 10/10, because its only people seriously passionate about wheeling. Last time we went, we were shown around by a guy whose been wheeling around the country for 40 years, had a TJ on 42s. Was a blast, one of my favorite wheeling experiences.

To me it sounds like SWR is way to much for my truck

 

What is this SPI meet?

I might skip out on SWR to go to that instead and take things easier on the Taco...

 

Morning!

 

Yeah, only time i've tipped has been at SWR. Luckily I dug my bed into a tree and kept me from rolling. Opse.

 

That link there... There are some other central texas folks heading down there too

 

Haha yea then SWR is way too much for my truck right now. I'll stick to HF until I'm 4x4 and have pin stripes

 

Yeah, it gets nasty. That's my best friend's yellow TJ. Sorry no pics of the Taco going over good stuff, his "phone was broken"

 

I'd rather wait truthfully, I might end up buying a ranch hand brush guard off another member here in the next coming weeks. Patience is a virtue I guess. Hell it's been 4 years and I'm almost done paying it off so I will have $400 extra per month come September! Then I will be able to piece it together by the end of the year hopefully.

 

Man looks epic AF!

 

Smart man Instead of paying for the Ranch Hand put that money to the truck and pay it quicker! Then you wont need a ranch hand cause youll be getting an epic front bumper!

 

Agreed, DO looks better than RH
