    Well I am done with any last minute changes now for sure. Picked up some Rotopax water containers and came home to a broken garage door. Damn thing is 47 years old so no way to replace the broken springs. Ordered up a new one tonight at HD (thank goodness for 24 month no interest:D). Door gets installed in 2 weeks.


    And as a side note picked up the ARB Sponser package today. For a last minute vendor addition they hooked up with a couple nice raffle prizes. :)

    See you gents in Moab!

    be careful with the caps on the rotopax containers. I just got 2 replaced under warranty because I had the caps too tight and they swelled up in the heat of the day and cracked. great warranty service though..

    They were coming back from a night run and he was going to fast around one of the turns and lost control. There was a lot of dust in the air and he said he didn't see the turn coming fast enough.

    I'd say the rack 2.0 is better than the first version, too.
