Gonna have to do some checking with the leasing co to see how strict they are with the "No parties" provision. It'd be great to have cookouts in the evenings.

Good point. I suppose if they do have strict rules, we could maybe have smaller get togethers at a few of the houses. Either way, it’ll be a lot of fun!

I’m sure we are fine to have a cookout and stuff. It like we are 21 and throwing some rager. Well maybe I am 22 at heart and still drink that way but don’t tell...
 
HOUSE AVAILABLE

I've booked and paid in full for a three bedroom house in Tierra Del Sol(MOAB). I am looking for two other people/families interested in sharing a house. This is a nice house with your own bedroom, two bathrooms, a garage, grill, and full kitchen. It is in the Tierra Del Sol neighborhood where a lot of the other people in our group have booked. Pictures of the house will be down below.

Dates booked are July 31st - August 6th

I've sent out several PMs, but haven't got any serious responses. So here's what I am going to do. If you are interested in doing this, contact me immediately either on here or text/call my number down below. First come first serve. It's just me on my own, I stay very quiet, and I cook a lot. And i always make coffee first thing in the morning!

COST: $500 total for six nights (just for moab portion of the trip)

Because I have paid for this in full, I will as for payment for your portion/room IMMEDIATELY. This was a huge expense for me to front, and I am unable to just hold it until August and buy the parts I need for the Jeep. If you want to stay, you'll have to pay in advance. After you book and pay i will be in constant email and text communication with you. You'll be provided with copies of all receipts, log-in access to the reservation on VRBO, ETC. If you are interested, contact me ASAP. This will be first come, first serve.

ONE ROOM LEFT!!! $500 gets you a nice big house, close to the entire group, cooked meals, TV, washer and dryer, ETC!

That’s cheaper than staying at the KOA!

A couple UD60s might follow!

Woah woah woah woah! I’m not that much of a baller!

I feel like an instigator, but the JL is super easy to get on 37s and if it is not driven stupid will hold up just fine.

With the 8 speed, you can even run without rehearing and hardly notice.

So when you went to 37s.. all you really needed was a lift? I know that’s was so tempting.. but I just wanna make sure I do it safely.

A 2" lift is all you need to get 37's on a JLUR. I'm planning on one for mine & throwing the 37's I have on my JK on it. Just trying to decide which lift I'm going with.

I just did the EVO 2.5" lift with fox shocks. Added the EVO tire carrier, so that the spare would fit even with keeping the factory wheels.

I installed the lift in the garage in a day, and another day for the tire carrier.

Talk to Bubba at Exodus, he will hook you up.

I put 37-13.50-17 on the factory wheels. Only a little bit if rubbing on the rear at full stuff, I didn't worry about it.

She has been running like that for nearly 20,000 miles, no problems.

Which stage kit did you go with?

Shoooot... now I can’t show up July 31st with the 33s...

My thought process behind it is.. I’m not going to drive 20 hours one way on a possibly once in a lifetime trip experience just to not be able to run something just because I am a little too small. 37s should get me just about everywhere I want to go in Moab.. and up the poughkeepsie wall in CO!

Thanks for the info! I’m gonna look into this more. I’ve already got everything picked out, just need to line up the finances of it!

Nice! I’m pretty settled on the Rancho 2” with the RS9000 shocks. Eddie and Cindy seemed to have pretty good luck with it!

That same inspiration/motivation is what has pushed Dday, Weebz and myself along. We would have got on 40s eventually, but Moab has really expedited it!
