I think after I buy the new mustang im gonna do a 1-2" lift on my camo-scion get some 14' flat- black 4x100 steel honda wheels add some very small all terrains and add the factory mud flaps, add a beefy roof rack with large basket and bike racks add a small light bar with 2-6' hellas. Done! My neighbor has the imaculate H2 which he actually avoids rain puddels while driving. my lil xb almost has the same cargo capacity and gas milage HA HA at over $2.50 a gallon this summer while he pays over $100.00 dollars to fill his gas tank and gets 8mpg . you bet your ___ ill be going all over on mild trails with my dogs gettin dusty and having fun for 1/5 the price, ill look the same too only 1/5 the size.

 

I would luv to see it

DO IT!!!!

 

 

damn, i was gunna do that a few months ago and go full out. 3" lift, side steps, mud wheels, and i was going to cut the front bumper in half and have those slanted metal protector plates. I took it too the shop and they wouldn't even touch my car. The only thing they sed was that it would slow it incredibly and they gave me all this ____ about the mcphearson struts. bastards

 

i would like to see it certainly would be unique.

 

I have been hearing about a blue xB in Big Bear Lake California that is lifted. I think it might be owned or sponsored by a snow boarding company since it had stickers allover. My neighboor has seen it there several times and he said it looked nice...
I would like to see a lifted Scion xB..that will be unique.

 

That'l be dope lookin.

 

I'd like to see that, I think it would be great... Kinda reminiscent of the Wombat...





If you don't know the Wombat was the Hummbug... the Humvee kit on a vw bug...

 

say goodbye to your tranny

 

.. Don't take turns to hard

 

gotta see some pics of that :D

 

i think that is a dare.

 

ppl are gonna get whiplash turning their heads to look at this car.

 

Not such a bad idea. A "rally look" scion would really look nice among all the slammed conformists.

Unfortunately, with tires you run out of wheel well clearance pretty fast.

I'm looking for a real roof rack too. Something more like the Con-ferr racks you see on Jeeps.

You might want to trim the skirts a bit to improve the "lifted" look.

Lights on the rack might be a bit over-the-top.

Don't get the idea that these mods will make the xB into an off-road vehicle. The underside is still rather fragile, and even with a couple of inches more ground clearance it will still be dicy in rough terrain.

 

there's definitely space on the xb front bumper to put some big 'ol driving lights

 

a while back i ported that i wanted to put the jeep liberty roof fog lights on , i wanted an a-team style bb :D

 

So did anyone ever do this? I'd like to see pics for sure!!

 

I'd love to see this as well.

I have a sweet, lifted FJ40 with close to the same mods listed and have fantasized several times about transforming the xB into a "rally" box.

 

Still in the planning stage, but I'm working on it!
But hey, I got the trailer hitch done!
:D
