Who's in Austin, ya'll?
- Thread starter jrebolloso
- Start date
not to hijack this thread but since there isn't an "Austin" section I'll ask here:
Anyone know of a good Austin shop that they'd trust to do suspension/uca swap on a 2013 Trail w/ KDSS? I should do it myself but I don't have many free weekends and I'm growing impatient
Pretty straightforward aside from working around the KDSS a bit but hoping to find some recommendations here.
thanks in advance

Sorry was busy up till run and kiddos got sick.
Ryan said he saw a bunch of you out there and looks like everyone had a blast! Said there we're close to 24 trucks by the end of it.
In regards to lift kits and UCA's most tire shops in Austin won't touch them. The 4x4 shops are Krawltex , pickupheaven , 4wdparts , and another I can't remember the name of down in Budha. Ryan my hubby started to installs since the shops were soooo expensive. 1 guy was quote like $1800 labor to do an Icon stage 3 lift install on a FJ just for labor. He's finishing a WJ lift in the garage today actually. 4.5" RC lift w/ Forward control arms and transfer case drop kit. Give him a ring.
Ryan= 512-815-8294.
:focus: Looks like I need to get my front diff and transfer case rebuilt YEAH!
Good thinkg income tax's are about to hit I can use it rite now!

Caught up with the FJ mob right after they ate/once I was (unfortunately ) on my way out...Only got to talk to one of the 4runner guys (Collin) who just picked up a 14 Trail premium, but I had to leave a bit earlier than I wanted.
Still managed to bang on some skid plates and get it a 'little' dirty...hoping this weeks rain/the next wash wont reveal too many pinstripes

That must have been Collin on his way in as I was on my way out.
I guess I missed you all together.

Hey guys! I am in Austin as well! I have a 1st gen taco 4x4 currently but will be moving into a 4runner in the near future. I love wheeling out in lago vista, found a great spot out there with fun trails if anybody wants to join sometime. Are there any HF trips coming up?
Hey guys, seems some of the SA guys (4runner and FJ's) are heading up to HF the last weekend of the month. I got tires and a diff to fix before that so not sure if I can play yet or not, but wanted to let you guys know about it.
btw - anybody good at setting up a diff? :nerd:

Hey samuelashirley just where in lago vista do you go 4x4? any quading allowed there by chance? I usually ride on my deer lease in Johnson city - lots of room....
