Here's a quote from Nick's email to me when they finally made it home from CO to MT:

I never had intended to design the 4runner for high speed deer jumping, but it appears it made it through just fine!

Chris

P.S. They are apparently going to take it out on Sunday, so hopefully they'll post some pictures on here at it's new home.

 

Just a quick update! Nick got back to me and said that whenever he's ready to sell the 4runner again in the future, he'd call me first. I told him that I'd buy it back whenever it date comes in the future.

I'm excited about it, even though it's most likely years into the future when it happens. I miss 4wheeling and keeping up-to-date with all that's going on over here.

Chris

 

Guys, you won't believe it. I might be the proud owner of my 4runner again. Nick contacted me yesterday saying he's heading off to the army and needs to sell the 4runner. We'll see what happens. Stay tuned!

Chris

 

What an awesome update! Hope it works out for you.

 

This would only happen to you Chirs. hurry the deal along and bring your rig back east for SE4RJ.

 

Bring it to SE4RJ-you got to!!!

 

Guys, I wish I could, but my UTV Rally is the same weekend. Boy that sure would be a reunion, though. I might be able to hit the next one, but man that's a far trip. Nothing is finalized yet, it really depends on the price, because I was hoping he would be keeping it a little longer than this.

Chris

 

Hey guys,

If Nick gets back to me soon and agrees with my price, I'm buying the 4runner back from him very soon. I'm very excited. What's the dates for the next SE4RJ, because I'm going to try to make it. I'm moving to AZ, as well, so me and schaffer can bicker at each other all the time.

My 2nd Annual UTV Rally is May 15-17th, 2008 if anyone's around or interested to come out and wheel Moab with me in the 4runner, that would be fabulous! I can't wait. One of the first things on the list is a new bumper...anybody got any recommendations for one that's really high clearance and non-tube? I haven't been in this scene for what seems like forever.

Chris

 

Dates are on the SE4RJ forum.
June 12 to 15 believe.

Hope you can make it!

 

At least it's the not the same time as our Rally, which was last year. I move our dates. It will be a long trek from AZ, but I'm going to try to make it.

Chris

 

Cool-get four matching tires this time though! That's a hell of a long drive to be riding on the spare!

 

Well, what 35" tires is everyone running these days? I'm so out of the loop, but all I hear about are the Toyo's and the Nitto's. Will any 35's fit on my stock wheels?

Chris

 

Yeah 35x10.50 Swamper SSR's will fit on stock rims at 35.3" tall.

I have read an article about the new BFG MT KM2-it's gonna replace the current BFG MT KM and it looks just like a Krawler!

You did well with all terrains-not sure if the Revo comes in a 35" though?

 

I like these...

 

What are they? How are ya Jim? how far will we be apart with me in Glendale? I'm only like 25 minutes from Schaffer.

Chris

 

I found them Jim. Where are you guys finding the best prices on the BFG's and Mickey's? 35's are okay on the IFS, these days, huh?

Chris

 

It takes a bit of work but my set-up w/ 315s is working fine.

Good to see you getting back in the 4Runner.

 

I can't say I haven't broken anything...but if you drive carefully IFS and 35's can take you quite aways.

 

I think the trip to Moab proved that.

 

as far as 35s go, i just jumped on the boat, with the new BFGs, and i couldnt be happier, they are the jam...
