I am heading to the Rock Junction event here at the end of the month in Grand Junction.

Just renewed....worth it for the raffle winnings.

I ran it last year locked in the rear and on 33's. The French creek area was a challenge but I made it after several attempts and good spotting. We didn't make it much further than that as a pair of broken JKs were being towed out and we didn't want to get stuck behind them all day. I have...

I will more than likely be joining you guys if its in BV (Just a 40 minute drive from Leadville).

Crunched mine a bit on Hells Gate a couple weeks ago.

Following. having the same issue in my Renix. Idles fine and drives fine but oil smells of gas. Just did a new exhaust manifold and gasket, new O2 sensor, cat and muffler too. Wondering if mine is due to the fact I usually only use it for short drives around town?

Looks good. I just picked up a 1970 Jeepster. Been looking for one for many years. Interested in the T15 swap as my T14 trans was in the back and missing all the internals.

My XJ has done this forever....did it before and after a complete suspension swap. Think it is coming from the knuckles where the brake caliper sits and it has worn away a bit of the knuckle....does not effect my handling at all though. My guess is that's a separate issue probably.

Re: The Colorado BS thread Mine settled quiet a bit. It took a couple trail runs though.

Damn https://rockies.craigslist.org/cto/d/2001-jeep-cherokee-sport/6577830914.html A Dana 44 from a Jeep Patriot? My wife's doesn't have one of those...

Changing plugs and coils solved MOST of the problem. Idle is a lot smoother but it still stalls but only after just filling the gas tank? Looks to be some sort of fuel pressure issue. Told my wife not to fill it all the way up next time and see if it still stalls.

Nice rig!

The only difficult trails around Leadville are Mt Elbert and Holy Cross. (Not sure how Holy Cross ended up on the South list?) Have not yet run Holy Cross but from what I have heard at least one locker and 33's with skid plates would be recommended. I ran Iron Chest last summer and the first...

The local four wheel drive club (Two mile high Off-road Club) here in Leadville is heading to Chinaman's on Saturday. If anyone wants to tag along you would be welcome. You can either meet us in the parking lot behind the Elks lodge on W 5th street in Leadville at 930 am or at the trailhead...
