When we did those two we spent time in Arches, then we went to Mexican Hat, UT to spend the night. That is right outside of the Indian reservations and Monument Valley. I don't think you would want to try both in one day. The drive from Arches to Mexican hat is very different.
You drive along a very nice straight highway and there are signs that no vehicle with a trailer or motor-homes are allowed. Then you come to the end of the world. There is a very tight twisty gravel road that goes down a huge amount. It ends at a nice road into Mexican Hat.
It was great but if you want to stay in Mexican hat, get a reservation first. There is one motel, one restaurant and two gas stations and not much else.
EDIT: I had to look it up. There is a 900 foot drop off the ledge on highway 261. I was in my 911 and the speed is 15 MPH or so and not much room to pass an oncoming car. It is a neat area of the country if you have good AC. Not so much if your AC is non working.
