I've been waiting for this trip report. Congratulations!
Did you run into any 4x4 drivers out there?

Amen.
Some of the outfitters in Moab told me there was no way this could ever be done on anything but a suspended bike.
When asking about routes I've been told, "We did it on 40's but you are going to need wider tires" or they tell me it can be done on such and such a bike, just not comfortably. If I want comfort I'd hire guides to drive out and cook me dinner.
