First thing - lose the steps. You should have rock rails and UCP also.

Sewie's right.

UCP- Under Carriage Protection

http://hummer.dealerfit.com/store/hu...1309_13045.php

Same GM stuff sold at the dealer, where they charge more money. Easy to put on yourself.

Rock rails

http://www.rocky-road.com/rockrail.html

I have these, the GM factory ones are good too and can be found on the site posted for the UCP. Both of these are important if you plan to run any of the more advanced trails.

A CB radio is also a must, everybody communicates with each other while the group is moving.

Gloves, blankets, water, other stuff too. Tow straps are a good thing to have but there will be plenty of others there. There are also several trucks with winches also, but I don't think anybody needed one last year.

* Edit -Well just the once, but several got pulled that time.

Sounds like you're in pretty good shape. I'm sure there will be some full stock H3's there.

How many Jeeps'ers are going? I may be there about the same time frame. I'll have the TWO and the Rhino. ANyone else bringing quads/ bikes or anything else?

At Rugged's request, I moved this thread here. I think that's appropriate because Moab ain't just an H3 thing. :) Everyone who has an interest in wheeling should go!

I hope to make part of this trip, still TBD.

Timpikeco is going? Yeah right. :giggling:


Tim, If i go... I will definitely bring my MTB and do the slickrock trail.

Re: Headed Back to MOAB!!
 
Thanks CO!

It's about time we got some H2 owners in here. I hope Tim does make it, I want to show him how his old rig is holding up, (it's not quite as clean as it was when he owned it :D ). I have a few friends with Jeeps that might be left over after EJS sticking around for a couple days at the beginning of our run.

How about Adam, Castlerock, Tah2oe, Rocks? Where you guys at? Let's get some new H2's out also.

Time to get your party hats out. Lets do some wheeling in Moab.

Somebody out there in CO needs to finally talk Mooncricket into driving that new Jeep out to Moab, it's gotta be more comfortable on a road trip than the TJ. ;)

You serious? Is this an invite? The young wife came home a few hours ago and said she was at Costco shooting the breeze with some woman driving a yellow Hummer...long story short...she wants one! That means I'll be in the market for an Alpha back in Alaska! She also asked what I was reading on the forum and I told her I think I might have an invite for a few days at MOAB. To which she replied "You should go Jeff! It only happens once in a while right?" If you're serious and it's an invite, pm me.

I got these from another guy going back to Moab. His camera and photography skills are way better than mine. He had to go buy a Heep though, so his wheeling skills are in question ;) :D .
