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.

NP, they can be had on ebay with recovery kits too for around 550....


if you take a pic and pay shipping they send u a neoprene cover too

BTW, very nice custom bumper, i would recommend primer and flat black, because you will be repainting it many times with all the gravel on the road up north..

I also agree with going bigger. But I guess if he always used at least one snatch block it would work for him...."most the time". Just all depends on how deep you bury it....lol I have a Warn 8k and wouldn't go any smaller. As far as the hitch idea, the op can do the same thing with an 8k.
