White Russian

ABOUT THE BUILD

The White Russian is a 2009 JK Unlimited Rubicon, that was built for a customer in Russia who needed a Jeep that could handle just about everything. From long-distance overlanding to remote exploration, and even tougher rocky trails found across Russia. Reliability and protection were top priorities, but he also wanted a clean, custom look that stood out without being flashy.

To meet those goals, Poison Spyder built the Jeep around a full Brawler Series armor package, all color-matched for a white-on-white finish. The suspension system features Fox 2.0 aluminum remote-reservoir shocks and a Rock Krawler 3.5-inch mid-arm kit, giving the Jeep the load capacity and comfort needed for extended travel.

Every detail was built with purpose. With a full lighting package, a snorkel, extensive armor, and a complete recovery setup, the White Russian is ready for anything it will come across.

WHY POISON SPYDER

BUILT FOR HARSH
ENVIRONMENTS

Russia’s terrain can switch quickly from snow to mud to rocky canyon walls. The customer needed armor that would hold up far from help. We test all of our armor in harsh, real-world conditions to make sure it won’t fail when you need it most.

A PURPOSE-DRIVEN BUILD

Every part of this Jeep was chosen with a purpose, and every component plays a role in capability, protection, or reliability. The result is a build where everything works together to support real overlanding and trail use.

A CLEAN, COHESIVE FINISH

The customer wanted the Jeep to look clean and cohesive. Because our metal armor can be painted, we were able to color-match everything for a white-on-white finish. And then we added a subtle wrap to bring it all together.
