What do I do with the capacitors when solving for R thevenin?

For the circuit below:

1. Find the Thevenin Impedance as seen by the load
2. Find the Thevenin voltage as seen by the load
3. Determine the load required for maximum power transfer
4. Calculate maximum power delivered to the load
5. Draw the Thevenin equivalent circuit with the load attached.

Do you understand the concept of what is going on in find ZL for maximum power transfer?

The key thing now is to pick a value for the load so that all is seen by Vth is a purely resistive element.
