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.

From 35s to 37s

Just curious, what was done to your front axle to strengthen it for the 37s since you have the wrangler unless I am mistaken

I'd say yes.... My Sahara had 4" Rancho long arm suspension and 37s were close without trimming the pinch welds

I'm quite jealous of you. I thought I put in a S#!tload of money into my JK. I checked out your profile and looks like you have many similar parts to mine.

I had a 4" Rusty's Offroad lift in my YJ and had no complaints. I remember it being fairly priced for what it was.

I haven't got gussets or a truss yet, but am planning on making my own. It's just a pain, since I don't have a plasma cutter. I would need to jig saw the cuts before welding it on. You wouldn't happen to have a plasma cutter, would you? You are only a few miles away from me

I'll be sure to post pics to show off the beast!
