1979 Jeep CJ5 with 304 V8, T18 Transmission, Dana 20 Transfer case with TeraLow 3:1 gears, 4.88 axle gears, Detroit Locker up front and Ox Locker in back with 1 piece axle shafts, 36" SuperSwamper SX Tires, Shackle reversal, MileMarker Hydraulic winch, MSD 6A ignition.
My apologies, I will not be able to attend. My job will not allow me the time off this year. Maybe next year.
However, I will be able to help anyone that has trouble near me. I am located in Trinidad, Colorado, (I-25 corridor) so those who are coming up from the south and taking 160 west will be able to know someone in this area. We have an O'Rielly's, AutoZone, NAPA, CarQuest, Wal-Mart, etc here. I am willing to help tow/pull/trailer anyone within 50-100 miles to get them help. I also am willing to help them get parts, etc. if they need them.

CJ is coming! He won't be able to bring his CJ across the country but he will be flying in.
Here's who's coming: CJ djohnbb62 IOPort51 TheDirtyCJ Tin Medic
and Me
But then again, we don't all need to bring the same spare parts. I've got all the hoses and belts for my V8. I have a drive shaft for my CJ5 (with u-joints that'll fit any CJ driveshaft) and I've got tie rod ends.
We don't want to get carried away with spare parts but I really think the most common parts to stop a four wheeler are the belts, hoses and u-joints. If these are newly replace or at the very least, checked to make sure they will hold up, you should be good.
Ouray, Telluride and Silverton are all very small towns. NONE of these towns have an auto parts store. They have service stations that have a very Limited supply of parts. It's up to us to be prepared.

I really wish I could make this trip and have been thinking and daydreaming about commiting, even considering trailering the Jeep, but I am stuck with little vacation time and lots of work.
