You still looking? It kills me to do this, but I don't think I'll ever use mine like I wanted to. I had it up for sale on RME last fall but changed my mind. Here was the thread. http://www.rockymountainextreme.com/showpost.php?p=634140&postcount=1 I've since added a 4.3gal...

Checker Auto on the south end of town stocks a lot of Yukon gears and shafts. They ain't cheap, but they're on the shelf! Good luck! Jared

I ought to be able to get out on the XR that day. I'll post up when it gets closer! Jared

You aren't THAT fat Spence. Get an XR650R and be done with it... and save yourself the 10 grand or so from buying a KTM 990. If you ever want to test drive my XR just give me a shout. I'm still in Ogden. For me there is still the same long list there was last fall. Check everything in the...

Looks like a great place to reduce the resale value of your bike. Jared:patriot:

Not as well as I'd like, but much better than I'd feared. Not much worse than towing 4 ATV's or a large boat. Because there is no tongue weight it tows about like having a good equalizer hitch, rather than making the front end of the truck feel too light. Especially when you load the bed up...

Agreed... there are cheaper tow setups out there. You can get an old F-250, a beat up van, or an older Burb for pretty cheap. But, then you have to inspect, license, insure, and store it. All of which rewards you with single digit fuel economy. Toss in the price of a trailer as well as...

We did meet a guy and girl in a red MJ at the parking area for Poison Spider, but they were alone. They had 6 lug axles and a RigidCo front winch bumper. As far as I saw we were the only black MJ / white XJ combo running around. I totally agree and simultaneously disagree with you... and I'm...

Yes it was. It was spinning because the later model Jeeps don't have front locking hubs. The Atlas is a fairly low mile unit, and the lube level should have been good. It doesn't seem like the bearing should have had any reason to just randomly go out.

My bro-in-law and I just got back from a weekend trip to Moab. We both flat towed our rigs to and fro. He has a 1990 Jeep MJ Comanche with an Atlas transfer case. As we were loading up to head home, he noticed a worn u-joint on his rear drive shaft so he decided to pull the shaft and toss it...

It was a great day for the dunes. The weather, while cool, was perfect. It was nice meeting you guys! We really need to do a "well attended" get together sometime soon before it gets to be 100* and crowded down there. Jared

So... this is tomorrow! Who's in? Since it's a 3 hour drive for us... we'll be at the ranger (pay) station at approximately 10am, and moving to big sand mountain immediately following that. The entrance fee is $8 (I think!) and whip flags are required on ALL vehicles travelling in the open...

This is good news... but who is "Sand Flats Director Andrea Brand" and how do we get her out of this position?? Jared

My '04 Dodge Dakota is in need of a front end alignment. This will be my first time having an alignment done by somebody else in 15 years of driving and owning 25 different vehicles... so I really don't know where to take it. Has anyone had any first hand experiences, positive or negative...

Greg - I think you'd be very surprised at what your bike would do in the wet, winter sand. It's more like riding on a wet beach than riding in the hot July desert. I'm taking my XR650R with its larger tank and such. Admittedly, it's not a 10 gallon monster! Just don't fill it up. Think...

Anybody else??

Whoops! I didn't notice the conflict with St. George. Let's do push this to another weekend. I'll be in Moab on the weekend of Feb 13-14, so that's out for me. Any major conflicts with Saturday, Feb 6th?

Motorcycle, AVT, UTV trip to Little Sahara Dunes, Saturday Feb 6th http://www.rockymountainextreme.com/showthread.php?t=71793 I originally posted this over in the forum specifically for these vehicles, but it is technically an "Upcoming Wheeling Trip" so it seemed appropriate to post it up...

I've been "pulled over" for playing on a pile of parking lot snow before. The officer told me it was similar to a reckless driving ticket, but he may have been full of poop. Jared

**EDIT** Due to conflicts with the event in St. George on Jan 30th, this is being pushed to Saturday Feb 6th. Please see below! I would like to formally invite all to attend a totally unofficial RME event. We will be going to the Little Sahara Recreation Area, specifically the area around...
