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.

Hey all,

Looks like I finally get to start up the build on my jeep and this is where I'll be tracking it

To start, my bone stock 2012 White Auto JKU Rubicon, first time out without doors and a top.

Thanks for the comments and pictures, always nice to see other builds for some inspiration. I'm excited for the parts to arrive. Got word from Northridge today that a pallet with bumper and winch will arrive Friday! (I'm not sure why the fact that it's being delivered on a pallet makes it that much more exciting!)

He hasn't logged on since October. Maybe lost interest.
