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.

Additionally, I had about a 1/4 tank left, so being at that angle, i don't think the fuel was getting delivered properly. On top of that, this was the first time with the coilovers, which significantly makes the front end lighter, thus unloading it and throwing me off my line. I'll have to get use to the coilovers (and throw a hemi into it for some weight).

I was happy to make it over the ledge, which was around 5'-6' tall.
