Planning the 2nd Annual Moab Jeep-CJ Trail Ride

[gert]

Would really love to go but this trip is costing a lot more than anticipated even with no major breakdowns. You may have to put me on the wishful thinking list.

I understand, sounds like you’re having a great time with your current travels. You’ll be in Moab with us in spirt.

Nice videos, I take it that is one of your Jeeps. What are you running in it?

 

[Posi]

Thanks mtnwhir, it’s a 77 CJ7 with Mopar FI, T18/20, Warn 9000 winch, and 4” lift I picked up for $2600. The Colorado Springs Garage Crew added one piece rear shafts, 33” tires, and Spartan Lockers.

Under the tub is very clean with no rust. There is/was rust around the wheel well until Bass repaired it. Still needs some body attention here and there.

Some will be in Colorado in 6 weeks.

Lets have a roll call on Jeep readiness.

I'll post for Bluerocket and Bill D:

Bobby's Jeep is all ready for the trail. He will be pulling his jeep out from eastern NY and arrive in Colorado Monday or Tuesday (22-23) He located a place to stay until we leave Colorado Springs on Sunday 28th.

Bill D and Carol is all set and ready to rumble!

Jenny and Mike will be renting also ready to rumble!

Talked to Bass and Oldjeeplady last night and will let them post up.

Shooby, Dave, Coldair, and 007 your rigs ready to rumble?

 

[coldair]

I’m really close to getting mine going has a few little things to finish up. Pull the windshield back, bleed the brakes, put the hard top back on it break in the new 4.88 gears

 

[oldjeeplady]

Working on it right now, this very second...

 

[shooby]

Everything seems to be in order on mine right now...If you remember from our last get together, my front locker wouldn't engage, I found that the cable which was routed about two inches from the exhaust pipe had melted down and fused up so the cable wouldn't operate. I got a longer cable and routed it away from the heat and both lockers are working now. I also installed a Tom Woods double cardon drive shaft and that made a big difference!
I expect to be in Colorado Springs Friday night, Ready to Rumble...Rattle...Tumble...

Working on it right now, this very second...

Like those shackles

 

[BusaDave9]

I'm ready! My jeep's ready. Ben's ready.

I'll be renting a trailer to haul my CJ to Moab. We'll be using Ben's pickup as a tow vehicle. We don't have far to go. We'll be getting into Moab on Sunday the 28th. We are both staying at the Big Horn Lodge.
I'm excited.

 

[bluerocket]

Very much looking forward to this trip! Starting to prep my trailer and TJ.

 

[Posi]

007?


I just meet Blackey and dropped of my t-case and seats. He will be passing them along to Bobby (Bluerocket) tomorrow who will haul them to Colorado Springs (Thanks).

Blackey told me he is renting the full week so we are up to 11 Jeeps. This was good news, especially seeing how much fun he had last year for the 3 days he rented. The jks they rent in Moab are no joke.
