Who's in Austin, ya'll?

[Msivley]

So no one from the 4runner forums came to the meet other than Htown.

We worked on 18 rigs from Jeep Cherokees , FJ's , 3 4runners including my own , and Isuzu Rodeo , and a Tacoma that was just driving by.

Things worked on:
CB's ( 1 install and 9 tuned to SWR 1 or less )
UCA ( upper Control arms ) installed new bushing , Total Chaos , Fabtech , MT LR.
Suspension ( only installed 3100's on one of the FJ's because his was blown )
BMC ( 1 4runner 2 FJs )
Coolant flush , water pump , and radiator on the jeep
CV reboot on my 4runner and an FJ
installed Rock Lights on an FJ
Installed a gobi stealth on a runner
Installed some MT LCA's

We had a very sucessfull Wrench Day. Hopefully some of you will make the trip to Hidden Falls next Sat!

 

[Msivley]

Only 2 more days till the run. Leaving our house around 7am to head there. Will run Channel 4 to the park on CBs.

Leaving same address as the wrench day with 10 trucks in Convoy. Hope to see some of you there.

Are you guys going to be out there Sat and Sun or just Sat? Daughter has bball tourney on Sat..... parental responsibilities!

Really wanted to head over last Sat but was at Wrench a Part grabbing me a 4.88 front diff. Anytime you guys have another one, pm me. Got lots of things falling off this thing!

Unfortunatly just a 1 day deal. Too many other responsabilities as well.
Come for 1/2 a day. Morning or evening. We will be there at Gate Opening (8am ) if all goes rite and probably be there till around 6-7 pm. The more the merrier!

 

[Msivley]

No extra 4runners showed hwell:

We had an awesome run. I will post pics shortly. We ran into a Nissan club and had a huge blast with close to 30 rigs. Talked a ton of crap to the jeep guys that just happened to be on the same CB channel. They talked crap back - it was all in good fun no one being serious....

No one took trail damage minus my pyscho hubby who tried to climb some crazy left. I'll try to link videos once they are uploaded.

Next run will probably be joint nissan / toyota run with camping at area 51!
Probably around March/April when it warms up.

 

[Msivley]

Here are just a few of the dozen's of pics and a link to the video. Not sure how well it will turn out. Hope you guys like.

That may be the muddy black FJ I saw last week, and wondered where it got so dirty Been to HF once in my Tacoma before and had a blast. Would've loved to meet some mechanically inclined folks near by. The Tacoma owners have a pretty active local Facebook page that spawned from TacomaWorld. Anywho...I'll sub to this sub forum too.

Another Austin (well...RR) T4R here. Sub'd to thread so hopefully I can make either build days or trips. Total stock 2012 LE 4x4 (at least until the warranty runs out).

Anybody heading to HF this weekend? Was thinking about going out on Sat. I'm still rather green at this so would welcome any T4r buddies.

 

[fattire]

I'd tag along depending on the time of day (wife's b-day Saturday). I'm also very green and would do well with some experienced folks.

 

[J Hoss]

Cant make HF but it'll be a truck wash and a benefit lunch for a friend who was in a bad motorcycle wreck at Sam's Boat for me.

My first time at HF I wound up on a couple of level 4 trails in my taco that had 32" MTs and a 3" lift. Great times but no way I want to scratch up the 'runner yet.

@msively just ran into Ryan out with his FJ earlier! Looking forward to meeting you and the local Toyota crew

 

[dr88ss]

I'm in San Antonio if you ever go off-roading let me know I will drive 2hrs away if needed..

Lol he told me. To be honest I may be just the slightest big jealous from what Ryan was telling me. Your truck sounds sexy cant wait to see it in person. Ryan's cell is 512-815-8294 just in case you needed to reach him. You gave him your card and he felt stupid for not giving you his lol.

I know the Tacoma guys are heading to HF on Jan 4th. I think Ryan was putting together a muti club run ( Kore , Nissan guys , FJ club , and was inviting the 4runner guys ) but I don't know the date or details yet. Will keep you in the loop. That and Jamboree is May 1-4 this year I hear!!!!

 

[J Hoss]

Awesome, Im definitely gonna start notifying baby sitters for Jamboree...sounds like a BLAST! Not sure if I'll be able to make this HF trip.

 

[Msivley]

Sounds like a bunch of us are heading to Hidden Falls on Sat the 4th. Ryan has to install some UCA's for a guy going so we'll be a bit late. Sounds like the Tacoma guys were hosting , the FJ club guys are attending and we were invited. I'll be in my 4runner if anyone else wants to tag along.

Ok...let me see if I can get their attention and maybe cruise with them.

Still awaiting for permission from Houshold6. I will re-engage the leadership this evening to see if I'm approved for a 12hr Kitchen Pass.
