That truck’s a beast!

Thanks for the kind words, I was Daily Driving it for awhile.

Specs are:
1985 4Runner
Less than 20K on a 22re, Downey header, some headwork, and an "RV" cam lol, supposed to give me more low end. Seems to work?!?
300 Amp GM one wire ALT.
1600PSI steering pump, w/ Hydro assist
Longfield axles and Birfs
Detroits w/ 5.29s
old All pro 3" lift soft springs
Bumpers and Armor are Trailgear
Harbor Freight 9K winch- Been used twice in 10 years. lol
Ultimate dual cases 23 spline, 2.28/4.7's, Davez Triple shifter
10 LED Rock lights & aux interior lights
Puma 1HP onboard air
Bluetooth amp and some crap speakers, Cause the desert eats that crap up. lol

It's a basic 1st Gen Toyota, No magic or secret cool stuff, but it works decent, and the family loves it.

What's Next?

Looks good. Whats the next challenge?


Thanks,

I have about 2K miles on this since the wheels hit the ground, I'm still working all the little things, right now. Rear Bumper/tire carrier, sliders, front bumper/winch. rock lights, Alt upgrade.
Front end is low AND leaning, not happy with the springs, so need to address that.
other than that drive it, wheel it, get some trips on it.

It started life as a 1997 Limited, rear factory Elocked, sunroof, leather, Auto. loaded 288k bought from original owner.

It's an evolution.

The parts list is about as good as some Toyota based crawlers. lol Not sure what I was thinking.
I gutted everything from the trans output shaft back and started over.:frusty:

Looks like we're past the 72 hours waiting for a current off-pavement with no man-made structures or a landmark reset.
 
Next picture...

A picture of you leaving a paved road, and heading into the wilderness/trail/offroad area.
not just a dirt construction site. :thumb3:

Sorry for the delay.

Was one of the three images you posted a "new" picture, taken in response to the challenge? The first one might could be, I guess, but the second two clearly are not.

If it is a new picture then carry on (but please post a new challenge sooner rather than later). If it is not a new picture then read up on the rules on p.1, post 1 please.
 
The first one was. but if you look way off in the distance it's a fail, that's the city.
and the others were not. one I clearly said was not, the second was another shot of the truck, but not clear that it was not.

and the next will be sooner than later.
if I can fill another challenge.
If it doesn't fit then kill my challenge and move on.

I got this Saturday. It would be a great image for this challenge but it was taken before the challenge. Oh well. I figured I would post it anyway for fun.

ok, I was slow at creating the next post,
one pic was a genuine effort the other two where not.
disregard my next challenge, and reset with someone new.

or use [MENTION=171043]kingofthehill[/MENTION] pic.
But I'm JR so probably not one to make the call.

Just stay with the dirt road challenge posted by 4runnerfun, it's legit.

I would offer that if you post other pics in the thread you have to use your words to explain them so there's not confusion. This thing is barely staying on track as it is...

I agree your picture was good and that we are currently on your dirt road challenge. I took my picture before you posted your picture to beat the last challenge. I just posted it for fun.
 
Dirt road into the wild... challenge accomplished. This was from this morning’s fishing trip in the Tremont area of the GSMNP.

Next challenge: Your 4R with one of those murals painted on the side of a building or wall to represent a town or some other attraction.

Next, your 4R and a cabin

This is too funny. It's been a couple of days since I checked in on the game. Friday, I was out near Norris Dam, fishing. Next to where I was fishing there is a log cabin grist mill that I've taken pictures of many times. Not this time. Then there's the Museum of Appalachia... a whole collection of old and restored log cabins and primitive structures collected from the area. But no pics. Then today, I was driving around and there are several cabins around where I live. I even thought someone should do a log cabin challenge. Then I get home and see this.:cry: If I run back out today I will get this.
 
I know the log cabin challenge has ran a bit long, but here is a cabin anyway. It is a defunct Tennessee winery that located there to capitalize on the millions of tourists that pass by that location. Problem was tourists don’t venture more than a half mile off the main roads to go to a winery with zero reputation.

Next challenge: Your 4R next to, under, or on top of an interesting rock formation. If not evident in the photo, explain why it’s interesting.

My 5th gen with a 3rd gen.
My neighbor’s dusty, bird-pooped 1999.
He needs to respect it more...
