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.

BTW: Worthless, Dana corp doesnt make the brakes. For many years (like 40), they were GM brakes. Now they are chrysler brakes. But dana didn't design them.


Yes I am aware of this, Dana was stated to reference that particular type of axle. I work on lots or Toyota, Suzuki and Rockwell axles and wanted to be clear as I have never had issues with those brakes.

Just got a call from dealer that the brakes are fixed. They had to bleed the master cylinder and run the computer to run the pumps in the ABS module.
