Finally got to Grand Junction and bought a house just before Thanksgiving. About 5 weeks later my 68 bronco and our belongings showed up. I am a happy camper now that the unpacking and getting moved in is pretty much done. You can see the specs on my bronco on ClassicBroncos under the same user name. I still have a lot of work to do on it. Paint will be first since it really needs it. Thanks for the forum and the connections. |

You need paint so you can get it scratched going through brush and scraped off on rocks :-) |

Welcome! What brought you here? Have inlaws who live in Soldotna, so am pretty familiar with the area. I LOVE AK! |

Welcome to Colorado. I'm in Gunnison, down US 50 about 2 hours. There aren't many club members here on the western slope. If you are coming through, let me know. Hopefully we can get some guys out to Ouray this summer for a weekend. Chad |

My wife and I always loved the 4 corners area and gradually chose Junction as a good balance. We are retired and left Alaska after 20+ years. Montrose was a contender for a retirement place but didn't have enough amenities for my wife. So far Junction is great especially since a bronco friendly fab shop (Battlement Fabrication) is only 10 minutes away. I have a 3.5 inch wild horses lift plus a 1.5 inch body lift. This worked well for my EFI setup and tranny install. I would like to get better articulation and Clint's shop can help once I save enough funds for the work. |

Montrose has always been on my list. An outdoorsman's paradise... But not so good for my wife either. Maybe I'll just get a cabin on some property nearby someday?? |

Welcome! We'll need to get out your way and do some club wheeling one day. |

Sounds good on some western Colorado club wheeling. Mine should go and stop well, but the articulation, gearing, and driver skill will be the limiting factors. |
