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.

Looks excellent. Can you please take a close-up pic of the tire carrier latch. I really like the jerry cans and the mounting of them.

Did you weld it to the frame rails or did you make mounting brackets?

HELL YEAH!

That looks awsome man, hard to see the finish match with the jeep from the photos but the lines make it stand out all on its own. Awesome design, awesome build. Period.

I made it with mounting brackets because I eventually want to make it for the basement builders but I will probably weld mine to the frame, keeps it more stable and from making any noises
