Moab

Post by Unaweep »

My wife and I were in Moab this weekend....it was busy...more than usual. Tourists from everywhere as compared to the last few years.

Plan ahead if your going this year..I think its going to be really packed.

Just heard from a local that it took him an hour to get dinner from the McDs last night. This year is going to be crazy!

I've seen many many rock crawlers on I-70 heading to Moab. I'm thinking I just need to go to Moab this week.

Yea not kidding. I saw three Jeeps and another Rock Crawler heading to Moab today.

On a cool note, as the guy pulling the crawler passed the Bronco going down hill on I-70, he gave me a thumbs up.

I passed him on the uphill after that...I think it surprised him. My 8 year old thought that was cool.

Not a bad first day. We all drove out. Spent a lot of time helping fix some other Broncos. I had a "minor" issue with my hydraulic clutch line (big surprise)! I was crawling down a decline and presses the clutch pedal and felt it blow through. Pulled off to find the roll pin somehow wiggled itself out and the line blew out of the slave cylinder. Miraculously the pin was hanging on by a thread and with a little ingenuity, was able to get the line back in and the pin re-installed in about 10-15 minutes. Best case scenario worked and should hopefully be set up for a good rest of the week!

Awesome pictures and keep them coming! Great looking broncos and glad to hear an easy fix!

And the thread hijack: As for the trailer.....it had a bronco on it an hour after the paint dried. It was born to transport broncos. We may need a new thread to see where that trailer has been.

I had it through Washington, Idaho, Utah, Wyoming, and Colorado. It may see more states than most of us our broncos :)!

Enjoy the trip!

How does the new rig perform. Hope the major changes were all worth the time and effort.
