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.

Always nice to have someone think of you.
Even when it's bad.

They've had it for a week at the dealer.
I called 4x today, and never got an answer from anyone.

First call, receptionist couldn't get anyone in service to pick up.

Second call, service mgr and advisor at lunch.

Third call, got new service advisor (today was his first day). He said he would talk to tech and call me back.

Fourth call, same guy.
Said the service mgr was the one I needed to talk to.
Put me on hold. Came back and said mgr would call me.

NADA.

I liked it better when I hadn't talked to them.

Alternator (though I cleaned it thoroughly) has "sand" in it.
Pulley also has sand.
Leak in transmission caused by driveshaft contacting transmission pan. Fluid leaked out, moisture leaked in.
Reverse and low gears melted together.
LIFT CAUSED DAMAGE, NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY.

MUST REPLACE:
alternator
pulley
transmission
driveshaft
must repair fan malfunction.

it will probably be summer before I can start on this, if then.
I may just have to let it get repossesed.
Sorry to disappoint all if you who have been watching.

Damn this completely sucks. What lift did you have? Is the front driveshaft rubbing the tranny pan a common problem with these things?

Well if comes down to the repossesion then I would take it back as close to stock as you can and sell the parts to make something out of it.
