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.

I do wish it had the gas can rotopax thing on it. Was kind looking forward to that.
At least I can finally get my jack off () the hood.
hahahaha Great Late Night Humor!!!

only carry up to 1/2-13. so i dunno what to do now
Are there any construction supply stores near you? I don't mean lowes or the depot, I mean something more local that caters to contractors? They might carry bigger sizes. Take a look through your local yellow pages to see. Another option might be to check the for sale or freebie section on this forum to see if you can get a spacer for cheap. I would think the additional backspace would make things work for you.

Did your bumper come with any provisions for the Rotopax tank?

I wonder if all of the bumpers shipped with the bumpstops on the wrong side. Definitely sucks, but I think you could make lemonade out of lemons with either a backup camera or a backup light. Not saying what happened is ok, I'm just trying to help brainstorm solutions.

I'm not sure. I will check. John is going to make me an 'adapter plate' /spacer to make my tire work.... I don't know what the rotopax mount is suppose to look like.. But doesn't look like any thing has it... And not sure where the cb antenna goes either.

A little led would be cool I guess in there. I'll figure something out with that once the winch is back there and there is somewhere I can pull power from...

Seriously, I was excited after seeing the pictures but this thread reads like a horror show. Disappointing.
