Easter Jeep Safari What a Show Moab WHAT A PLACE

Well again as always we got to know some really awesome people at The Easter Jeep Safari Show. We will be up early in the morning to head back to Colorado. As much as I love Moab I can’t wait to get home. It was a great show and THANK YOU Red Rocks 4-wheelers for all the hard work. THANK YOU Judy for the use of your JK.

Moab Utah Easter Jeep Safari JK Build

Last summer a loyal customer and friend stopped by the shop to let us know she had purchased a new JK and she would be back this year for a complete rear system ( bumper, swing out tire carrier, gerrey can /Hi-lift mount, and rocky rack ). We needed something new to take to the Easter Jeep Safari this year so I called Judy and offered her a deal on parts in exchange for use of her Jeep during this show. She had it to us all the way from Kansas in about a week. This gave us a few weeks to get all part put on and also design a new front full bumper with winch mount and brush guard. We also put on the New 2x6 rock bars (make a wonderful step).
We left for Moab Monday the 6th . We have had a wonderful trip down. When we arrived Tuesday we settled in and then had to take the new JK for Pictures. Just out side of town is a very mild trail but beautiful trail that we took. You know we have some of the most beautiful county out side our door at home, but this is a whole different kind of beauty that God has blessed us with. I am falling in love with the JK. It has lots of rum. In the morning we will be up early to set up the show booth . Judy Lynn THANK YOU so much for the use of your Jeep. I hope you like the way it all turned out.
More Pic to come of booth space.

Custom Bracket for TJ 99 Jeep Wrangler

Using this TJ 99 Jeep Wrangler as a snow plow vehicle was great until you need to make a trip and can’t attach your tow bar unless you completely disassemble the plow set up. It’s definitely not time to do that, we are expecting maybe up to another 12” of snow tonight.

Not a problem we made a custom bracket that slides into the same attachment used for the plow

Snow Snow Snow What do we do with it all

This morning when we arrived at the entrance the wind had blown a drift across the cattle guard that was as high as the front of my jeep and oh 4 to 5 ft in and then slanted off. Dave and Jeff hiked in to the shop and call our neighbor for help. He came down and knock a whole in it so we could get our vehicles up to the shop. You know 2 months ago I thought it was really cool to get to play on the way up the road but you know its getting a little old. I think its just all the worry about getting the road clear out so the steel truck and ups can get to us. They say we have another storm coming through tonight and tomorrow and then it is suppose to warm up a little. I’m not a city person but I think I’m ready to go to the city for the weekend so I can see some dirt. OH well just think how pretty and green every thing will be this summer.
