Ok, this might be something everyone already knows but...
Moab is really scarce on everything but Jeep parts. During Easter Jeep Safari it was difficult to find parts for my blazer (rear yoke). I went to every offroad store that was in Moab and it was to no avail. Everyone said that they had Jeep stuff but not Chevy stuff. I ran into a guy trying to find a slave cylinder for a Unimog. hah hah. Poor bastard.
Bring the stuff you may need. Bring stuff others might need. If I dont get Jess to build my new driveshaft, I'm bringing a spare (maybe two). My two cents.
Oh and bring bungees. If you roll it sucks to spend an hour picking up all your lunches, parts, and junk from the trail. And bring carb adjustment tools so that way your rigs not stuttering like Jimmy Carter.

chrome sucks
about chrome: "I didn't know it was possible for something to both suck and blow"

I bring every thing I can carry every time I go wheelin.But for this trip Im gonna bring even more parts.One of the things Im gonna bring that I usualy dont is a pair of knuckles .I saw a couple of pics with broken ball joints and mangled knuckles and it got me thinking.I think between all the people and their parts going on this trip we will be able to fix almost any thing.Thats the cool thing about wheeling with other Chevys.

Some people shouldnt drive anything bigger than their head.<a target="_blank" href=http://community.webshots.com/user/beaterwhang>community.webshots.com/user/beaterwhang</a>

What if I'm just flexin' my stuff on the curb and stayin' in a motel, just extra ice and whiskey right... How about for us whussy's on the pussy trails, any thoughts. We all gotta start somewhere, and hey those curbs are kinda scary.http://coloradok5.com/forums/images/icons/wink.gif

The Carquest in Moab can order just about anything in a day from out of town. They have a parts truck that runs everyday. They got me a new Dodge Dana 60 spindle in one day when I broke mine last June in Moab. It's still good to bring any parts you know might be hard to find.
