Preparing for first trip to Moab

[CUZICAN]

Thanks for the tip on the tie-rods ROX. I'm hoping I don't have a problem, but if not it will give the the excuse I need to start upgrading the suspension and maybe going bigger on the tires. Will be out there 3/30-4/3.

I don't know what that is. Are they smaller than stock 35x12.5x17? You'll at least want a 35" tire if not 37" if it's practical, otherwise you'll find yourself high centered and riding the rock rails more often. If your going with other H2's then you can follow their line, if not, you'll need someone that can spot you in your truck. Don't get me wrong. You should be fine, but since you brought it up, I thought I'd mention it. Take at least one spare tie rod. It's important to have. I think the whole thing runs between $50 to $80. (i can't remember)

When are you headed out?

3/30-4/3 Are the dates I will be in Moab, sorry didn't mean to confuse. And yes they are the stock 35" BFGs. I will be going with all Jeeps so this should be interesting.

LOL!! My mistake.

Have fun and take lots of pictures! You're going before EJS(i think) so the trails won't be wiped out and crowded.

If you have time, upgrade your steering stabilzer to teh RAncho one as well. You'll be thankful byt eh end of that trip. They'e like $85, but you have to have it put on as it requires a special tool. A set of 37's would will give you some extra GC too, but I have seen stock H2's run all of those trails. the stock BFG AT's do quite well on the slickrock. In fact, I think COHUMMER did all of those trails stock without anything done to his.
