You already put money into the M8000 getting it cleaned up and rebuilt. Low profile winches block much less of the radiator.... and the radiator on old CJs wasnt that big to begin with. If you dont need the speed or cable capacity of the 8274, just stick with the M8000(its already rebuilt) and...
@crit_pw is right. My wife had a stock Trailblazer when we moved out to CO and we ran trails all over the place with it. With careful spotting and tire placement your TB can run almost every trail in the San Juans, Grand Mesa and NorthWest CO.
Area BFE is the plan right now. I have been talking to another land owner in the area but hes OK with ~10 or so rigs.... not 50+ right now.
Yes, Moab(SE Utah) in general should be on everyones bucket list. There are 100s of miles of trails to explore. You can choose to push the limits of your...
@theMightyGoose Theres some good spots on the road out to Temple of the Sun/Moon for camping. Theres even a few spots right by the river just outside the east entrance to the park near E. Hartnet Rd/Hwy 24 intersection.
Potash Rd is a fun drive. Link it to Long Canyon and Shaffer Switchbacks for a great day! I would recommend going DOWN Long Canyon unless your rig is modified. Theres a few "steps" at the top that can be difficult and dug out at times.
I am working on an event in Moab, UT next fall. Private land for the gathering, room for 100+ rigs, good weather and tons of trails. Im still working out the details with the landowner and I will start a gathering thread once things solidify.
Yes it is West of the Mississippi, but its not in...
Thanks!!

We have another trailer design coming out next spring and OB will be the first to see it.
Welcome to OB from another Western Slope member!!
If you have any questions about travelling in Western CO/Eastern UT or mods for your JKU, dont hesitate to ask!!
We have no affiliation with AT but I did recently hear he moved up here. What can I say, Fruita is amazing.

The Outer Banks of North Carolina has some of the best surfing/camping I know of. Theres a great campground tucked in the dunes in Frisco and usually has some pretty good waves. The whole island is 100miles long and L-shaped so somewhere on it is catching swell from somewhere. If the whole place...
@theMightyGoose, keep an eye on our website!! Im working on our "Enduro Trailer" that will be released next spring. It is a full enclosed, Aussie style expedition trailer with all the bells and whistles. Im trying to bring it in around half the cost of the Patriot Brand with the standard AMO...
@fj80toyman, Your trailer is complete!! I will be taking it on a road test in the morning to make sure all the lights and brakes work correctly. Then its going to be loaded up on my trailer and ready to head out to Utah to meet you!
Swapping in a 700r4 overdrive transmission is usually pretty simple. The converter lockup kits are only about $175 and you can probably find an entire donor from a newer burb(91ish) with the crossmember and t-case ready to go.
You can also swap to a TBI with a computer/throttle body from a...
I just picked up the new DeWalt 60v FlexVolt 16" Chainsaw. The new batteries and brushless motors of the flexvolt line have really impressed me in the past year. Even running the table saw and mitersaw constantly, the batteries last for HOURS. I also picked up a new 9 amp hour battery to go with...
