BB 2019 last minute thrash
- Thread starter ktmoutfront
- Start date
Still in the same situation as when it left bb last year.
The Green Machine will likely be going into surgery next winter, but the only thing I really need to do before Blazer Bash this year is a new steering box and front drive shaft. Possibly mount up a winch as well, we'll see about that.
Since the K5Camper was ready for a prior trip I'm at load and go status. I've got the entire week off and not yet decided what day to roll in. 7.5 hour ride depending on the route I take. I do have a long weekend planned in early August as another shakedown run in the CO mountains. Just to make sure my stuff is mission ready.

New ujoints in the rear driveshaft, brake pads, and rear tires should be all set for this year. Debating tossing in some 2" lift springs and welding up the front.
I wouldn’t weld the front. I had a minispool last year and I could barely turn the wheel.
No welding the front. You'll need to steer in moab
I've been wheeling out there since 2007 with an open front.
But your special
Finally. Somebody noticed.

True, but 1 wheel on your k5 has more flex than all 4 of mine put together hahaha.
So for this trip good tread and a loose nut behind the steering wheel, check. haha.
Just go with decent tires without cracks and you will be fine. Moab has crazy grip on the "slick rock"
Not completely. Still have moments of missing something. Son and wife won't let me be alone. Drove yesterday by myself and forgot where I was supposed to go.

Think my humor was missed
I understood it, but I thought that was a given around here. If it isn't referring to driving, then there is usually some other craziness that comes out! As long as you don't sing while wheeling, all good!
Assuming that you sing like most of us.
I caught it to, just wanted to make a note if anyone had the same questions
A/C? Who runs a/c in Moab? LOL
I know a couple Texan’s that did but they also drove from Texas, wheeled Moab and drove back to Texas.
