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.

First off great build so far and can't wait to see finished product. Second where are you located? I need someone to weld a few things and could pay.

Can't wait to see the finalized product. Wish I had the resources to even attempt something like this. Looks like a fun experience that will create one beast rig!

Upper links cut, finish welded upper link mounts on truss.

Made a crossmember out of 2x4 square tubing. The rear is pretty much done except some finish welding. I'll be ordering my king 14" coilovers this week.

Now it's time to start bending some tubing for coilover mounts.

Damn, It's came a long way since the other day when we were over there. You need any help, just let me know. I can always find a way to slow the process
