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.

Got rid off the paper thin tranny crossmember. Built my own out of 2x4 sq tubing, 3/16 wall. Also adding thicker tabs on the frame where it bolts up.

This crossmember needed to be stout because my lower control arm mounts will attach to it. I think I would have killed the stock unit real fast.
