Re: Headed Back to MOAB!!
Sorry dudes & dudettes, I gotta put the Moab trip off 'till later in the year. I'll be thinking of you every day.  Please post great pics. Had a great time last year meeting you all, best wheelin' fun I've ever had.
i heart the moab.

Just a little over a week until I'm hitting the road.

Re: Headed Back to MOAB!!
Counting the days.......
Wife and kids are leaving after the EJS final weekend. I've got a couple Jeep buddies sticking around after that.
I'm planning on staying through about Friday.
I ordered some Cognito parts to strengthen the steering system, Idler and Pitman kit and the Idler Pivot kit. Looking to do the upper control arms too.....but I won't get that done before this trip.
Got new tires showing up on Friday....... 
I hope they fit.

Bloody hell man! You better bring 3 or 4 sets of spare steering parts with tires that wide, combined with Moab slickrock. 
Kenny busted his stuff with 13.50s.
Should look good though.

Re: Headed Back to MOAB!!
I've already run around all over down there with 13.50's.
I did buy the pitman and idler support kit, and the idler pivot kit. I talked to Phil about swapping out the center link also, but the truck does spend more time on the road than off.......so I didn't do that part.
You're right though.....the steering with those wide tires was one of my primary concerns too. 
Edit*
I'm already used to wheeling a 3 and not breaking sh!t, so I should be OK. No smilies on edit so pretend there is a big grin here.

Too bad some of us CO folks are going to miss you. I hear you'll be leaving the day we arrive (late that night).

I'm not planning on heading home until the 29th. So I'll be around for a couple of the days you guys will be there.

Re: Headed Back to MOAB!!
I got those KM2's on the truck!
I'm not worried about it anymore at all. They don't look any bigger than the Pro Comps that just came off.
The "shoulders" on the Pro Comps are much more squared than the KM2's. It makes them look bigger and wider.
I'm ready to put these tires to use on the trails. I could've bought an old Jeep for what they cost.
