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.

Been done before "Lower Forty" is awesome. I'm hoping for 35s no lift myself but out of preference, since I'm the Dad now... Kind of sneaks up on you don't it?

I cannot believe I just found this thread now and missed all the drama!

JPTwinz and Scott both have frickin awesome rigs! My Jeep only hopes to grow up to be sitting on 40's.

Could you imagine 40's and 7 inches of lift on a 2 door? Little top heavy, maybe?

As for who wins, let me break it down like this. JPTwinz is a bit taller but needs to get some wheel spacers to get a little bit more clearance around his tires. Scott has upgraded front axles, his tires only rub a little bit fully flexed.

All in all, once JPTwinz gets a little bit more arse in seat time, I think he will be able to keep up with Scott. He may have to sacrifice the axles and u-joints until he upgrades too, but both rigs are VERY capable.

I am very jealous of both, and wish my jeep could even compare. (I'm the silver one to the right of JPTwinz..)



YOU BOTH WIN. A beer for each of you on me. Just name the time and place!

40's are a bit much IMO.

Even better, any chance you guys want to roll these monsters into the pavilions saturday afternoon/night car show at indian bend and the 101, Mcdondalds parking lot, lots of other cars to check out, that might be a lot fun, let me know, maybe 3-4pm? and anybody else that might want to bring their jeep,
Camp, Scott and I are going to try for 4pm on Saturday. We'll have the wives and kids too. I've been to that show at the pavillions before so it will defintiely be fun!

I think that all the jeeps on 40's are bad ass but you can't forget this one when your talking about 40's.

I honestly like the red one better! Just my opinion though.
