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 thought about doing that with my buddies hard tonneau cover from his Dakota but decided the latching would be a bitch so decided against it..
That is a great idea, recycling a "ruined" hard top and turning it into something awesome.

Thanks, I used a 1"x2" piece pine trim. Glued it and fiberglassed it to the top. Then drill holes through it and use through bolts that hold velcro straps in place that go around the roll bars. The wood pieces worked out well with two purposes. To keep the unsecure rear part of the roof secured, and to keep it leveled.

I would be interested to know how you made the two door version. What material did you use

I have a thread in the write up section:

Write up: cargo cover - deck cover

It has all the instructions and measurements for the 4 door. I haven't gotten around to posting the 2 door measurements yet bit I will soon.
