Super VXer
All you need is mad driving skilz!
Seriously though, for the milder to mid level trails a stock VX will do just fine. As the difficulty level increases the more protection and clearence you need. Inexspensive bell protection can be had with the Trooper factory skid plates. Lift can be done relatively cheap with OME912 springs and t-bar adjust. You have the tires covered and the sliders will protect your rockers.
And then all you need is a spotter you trust.
Hope to see you there.

Super VXer
What those guys said. My first three Moab's where done at stock height with 285/60/18 Terra Grapplers, no sliders and the stock Trooper skid plate. Just took it easy, listened to my spotters, and didn't have a problem.
On a similar note, we usually do a caravan of VX's on the Monday of Moab. As those to our East and North head this way, they pick us up as they go and we all roll into Moab together. Pretty dang cool seeing that many VX's on the road at once.
