WhiteKnight Build - (Smallfry's rebuild)

[TheArkMaster]

I did. Two weeks ago.

See post 273 :biggrin1:

If only i had seen this a week ago :frusty:

Just kind of a feeler at the moment but anyone with the Utah region with a 3rd gen 4runner with limited/sport style flares interested in a rear CBI bumper?

Looking at having CBI build me a different one so the spare can go underneath.

My new rear bumper is in production so my current rear bumper will be up for sale at the beginning of September.

The first real dirt my 4runner seen all year and it's a mud hole (it's been garaged and I've been out of state).

Working on the video and photo's. So only a snapshot for now.

Photo's of my 4runner from the trip.







Youtube is being stupid so I'm unable to log in to upload the video.

Future home of the WhiteKnight, come the end of next month. Nice 2 car garage. :biggrin1:
Just got to be careful with the HOA.

HOAs are an invention of the devil.

Somewhere in Montana this past week.

I guess somewhere along the way on my recent 1700 mile Montana road trip I managed to screw up my front passenger side shock and develop a steering rack leak. Oh, joy.

It won't happen I have a hard justify the cost of them to get into a mileage zone and budget that I'm comfortable with.

A couple of photo's from my recent road trip. The most off-roading I got in was the trip back to Lion City due my front shock issue.

Craters of the Moon, Idaho



Lion City, Montana



Glacier National Park, Montana (3 days and roughly 50 miles of hiking and I only saw Yogi Bear once :becky: )









Garnet and Granite, Montana (ghost towns one is maintained by the BLM the other is not)







A little over 1700 miles of driving and my 4runner performed great besides my front shock issue. The only thing it needs is a supercharger for a little more go.

Worst MPG - 14
Best MPG - 19
Avg MPG - 16.5

Speeds were between 70-80 mph w/ and w/o a head wind

:lookout: Test drove an 06 Lexus GX470 and I'm not quite sure what to think of it. Got some thinking to do.
