JK Show & Tell Whether they're just poser shots in your driveway or hardcore action shots on the trail, if you've got photos or videos of your Jeep JK Wrangler (or any JK for that matter that you think is worth showing off, inside or out), we want to see them so please post them here! Likewise, if you are wanting to see a photo of something specific like an aftermarket JK part or poser shot with a specific setup, this is the place to ask for it.

Below is a pic of the wheels. They are simple which is what I wanted.

Camp, I'm in Gilbert AZ so I can definitely stop by. Also, I'm adding in a 1 3/4" Daystar spacer on top of the Tera lift. I was told I couldn't go much higher than that.

Scott, I prob won't make it this weekend since my flares and tire carrier aren't in yet (more so the flares). I think I'll rip the shiznit out of them if I try to flex the suspension too much. Camp want's to check out the Jeep so maybe we both go out there next week?
