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.

axle is a little bent....

It was sat night in the dark in rocky point Mexico and went out to the sand dunes to go on a run......

Came over the top of the dune and came down really hard no one was hurt..

Did not even know the front end was damaged till next day in the light

Just heard to tire brake off the back...(went back and put it in the back)

I wish we had some vid....

I did have the evo C gusets welded on the axle(which held up) but still bent the houseing

So had to drive it home like this for 3 hours the pass axle seal ripped out and I just toped in off evey hour on the way home...So the bearings would not get hot ...It did not even take a 1/2 qt.

Going thu my Mexico insurance not but there are not happy cus I did not make the clam in mexico... So most likly going to have to fix it myself


This was my fault....not looking for a hand out... but any info or help for a new axle (like if someone put 60's under there jk and the stock axles are just sitting in the corner somewhere) or where to find one or how to fix the rear tire carrier would be greatly appreciated!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No I did not weld it ....Total Auto Pro's in Phx AZ did it when they did the lift...
