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.

Default 1-3/4" Rough Country Installed...PICS.

Got my lift installed this morning, only took about an hour and a half and I'm happy with how it turned out. It's not much, but it makes it look alot better and gives a little more clearance.

Before:



After:






Next to an un-lifted JK...hard to tell.

Looks great man.

I've got a question: How did you mount those fogs on the stock bumper? Looks very nice.

Well, I originally had planned on getting the 2.5" but after I thought about it, the 1.75" is all I really need. The tire I have now is the largest I plan on running (32") because of my 3.21 gears, so a 2.5" lift I thought might make the 32" tires look too small. And, with the 1.75" I didn't have to mess with shock extensions or the added cost of buying new shocks...basically this is just the coil spacers, nothing else to it. (i'm a little lazy too) So, in short, the 1.75 fits my needs and makes my JK look more "proportional" with the size tires that I have.....at least that's what I'm thinking.

Just drilled 2 holes through the plastic bumper cover then through the metal inner bumper and bolted em right on....took just a few minutes, really easy!


Thanks everyone for the comments, and here's another shot from the side....
