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.

On to the lift to begin the suspension work. Arctic Spyder will be getting a hybrid suspension based on Rock Krawler's Triple Threat Pro Long Arm kit with aluminum links, custom Poison Spyder coilover kit and Fox Racing Shox coilovers.

NICE...Badass build guys...With my 35"s i think i have enough power thanks to the 3.6 engine...
With your 40's could be tight...I see you pretty much gotta touch everything axles - driveshaft -
the lift in question also gotta be 6" or more...Nice work guys...Thought my Arctic JK is bad well
in my area it is...but yours is pretty cool...I'll post pics of mine tonight...

Time to mount up some of the painted Poison Spyder gear. First up is the Brawler Lite front bumper, painted in color-matched Arctic white.





The RockBrawler Rear Bumper also got painted in matching Arctic white.





We did a pretty cool two-tone paint job on the aluminum Crusher Flares: the top plates are painted white, while the tubes were brushed and clear-coated.



The aluminum 4-door Brawler Rockers also got two-tone paint: white for the upper body armor pieces, and brushed and clear-coated on the bottom pieces.



Everything then got taped up to protect the finish during the rest of the build.
