Any local recommendations?

Anyone know of stores in Moab selling the spiral or do I need to hurry and order via web (and his site would be???) before my next trip?

Thinking it may be time to tackle some minor Monty projects...step-style (along the lines of Stratton's) rock sliders and some minor front bumper/fender trimming. Any recommendations for cost effective (ie quality but cheap) work?

Has anyone looked over the new edition of the Wells' trail book to know if there are enough differences to be worth buying a new copy? When I glanced quickly at it, I noticed some changes in trail difficulty rankings (do y'all agree or not on those?)?

Can't argue there. I just have a bad case of envy. If I ever have cash sitting around waiting to be spent, I want a Pinz! For a family wheeling, the FJ80 sounds like the best thing to start with.

You already have a Pinz, and thats not different enough?

I have a Sucro. Got it on-line for about $200. Size works great on the MS.

Nice details, thanks! With empty mileage in that range, could pay the higher diesel cost and still break even on what we spend now (we get 16-18 mixed town and highway).

Agreed! That would be very cool. The H4 is fine, except that sloped back. Looks dorky and not at all practical. I like the idea of some compition for Jeep. Good compition would only make all of the rigs better.

Diesel guys, about what do you get empty/regular driving? The harsh reality I have realized is that my life has become too complicated to have two vehicles (the Yukon and Monty) to 'do everything'. In reality, I need a tow rig that sits most the time 'cuase they suck so much fuel, a good...

Rock Logic? Also, happened upon a Toyota SAS kit under rock crawlers on KSL

In the near future, a seperate dd is for sure in the plans. Most likely a Subaru (like the AWD option in the occasional nasty snow storm). I think that was part of a previous post. Main issue is what I could get for my $$ if I can sell Monty. If not, then I stick about $2k into it for front...

Here is the deal. I have an 04 GMC Yukon XL. Tows the boat (5500 pounds or so) just great. As a family rig, great for people hauling. However, tow rating of 7500 or so pounds may not be up to our horse hauling needs (empty trailers run 4,000 pounds for a four horse bumper pull, then add 1k...

Only that would give me a trail rig, a guzzler and no cost effective dd.:eek:

No, I love the Mitsubishi....only reasons to consider a change are 1) few upgrade options. Front ARB is about it. Of course, if I do that and new tires (needed anyway) and I have front locker and 33s. 2) I need to seperate the trail rig and DD. I ask myself if keeping my '03 Monty as...

Lets add a little to the info here. What are "minimum upgrades" (axle etc) and lift needs for 33s on: Cherokee/Grands (I know lift was been talked about before, I am ok there) Cruisers/4Runner/other 'Yotas Land Rover (Disco, Range/Classic)

From what I have seen, Toyotas are more $$ than what I can spend on just a trail rig (otherwise first choice would be an 80 series Cruiser). The real issue is gas $ and an 85 mile round trip commute. I need to sperate daily driver from commuter. Is what I am trying to decied on is do I put...

say $3,000? $4,000? Street legal, trail worthy (I think for what I want to do 33-35s, one locker-2 if front is selectable-) and reliable (a mechanic I am not, I want to get somewhere, and back). Thinking options...

hey, glad someone knows it.
