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.

So will I....lol

Just did a full poly weld in cage in it , rhyno lined it, harness, metal front fenders and new gusseted diff covers for the new owner...
he bought it had it home for 2 days then it was back with me for 5 getting built more...now its back in his possession.

I will say a 2 dlor built is more capable in the rocks then a 4dr...I hit the same nasty team.s and the 2 dr walked through the rocks easily...

The guy that bought it sure is one lucky sob. I believe that this new one you're working on is going to be great though.

Couple crapolla cell pics




Here's the reason I chop the frame, better total departure in shortness and height.
