I'm sure that like myself, many of you guys have pictures saved of rigs that you draw inspiration from. Builds that you really enjoy that you take a few ideas from, or base your XJ off of entirely.

This one is mine for my Jeep:

Same color as mine, and no frills, just a bad *** looking rig with a little bit of stretch and a nice comp cut.

And for ****s and giggles, this is the rig that prompted me to start collecting parts for a YJ project:

So what rigs have inspired you? Let's see what you guys got.

Yep, I had just bought my Jeep in 2011 and when I saw this picture, I was dead-set on lifting it just like that:



Shortly after, it didn't take too long for my Jeep to turn into this:



And then... it wasn't long until J.ust E.mpty E.very P.ocket happened...

I honestly have no inspiration. I just want a badass offroad vehicle that iI can drive every day, fit my family of 4 in, tow my boat to the lake and sleep in if I have to. Xj is perfect for all of that

That's quite a diverse group of offroaders in that last pic. Dirtbikes, 4-wheelers, prerunners, crawlers, and.... a lawn mower? Lol

When you gotta cut, you gotta cut. Come hell rock or high waters, he will still be able to cut your lawn.

I don't think a day pass's without me seeing that I really like and wonder if I could make it work on mine. To be truthful 90% of all the things I have done to my XJ have came from ideas here or NAXJA. All in the last 3 1/2 yrs and a bunch of great people with awesome ideas!
