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.

Cool! That thing is solid. Does yours have any rattles. Mines tight, I want to find an alternative to the Pip pins.

I bought the red pip pins from Harbor freight, but the diameter of the pins are either to small or to big.

BTW, I bought my wife a Cricut Expressions 2. It's some scrap book thingy that cuts paper, matte board and vinyl sticker.

I'll let you know how the vectors and new stickers come out. I'm sure it's going to be a big hit, if guys on here are wanting to make their own personalized vinyl sticker.

Yea it is solid at first it was tight no shaking or rattling. But now after the trails it feels loose and kinda squeaks I guess I need to check it out and swap those Bolts like posted above and see what else I can do to fix that.

Let me know if you figure out where those squeaks come from. I had one, I think coming from the front mid section of the left rock skin...before I painted it. After removing and reinstalling, it went away.

I also had a rattle coming from the gap between the pip pins and hinge joint. Fixed if sized washers.

Rock skins installed. Lights wired up, and sure as hell, i need resistors that were not shipped. Got mayorly delayed repairing body damage from last year. Anyone else have the peice that bolts onto your tire come with the wrong bolt pattern? It is way off and wont fit. Gonna remove the studs so it will work. While i like the quality im unimpressed with the missing parts and wrong bolt pattern.

There should be a dozen-ish holes in that circular piece that bolts to your wheel. Three of those holes, when properly rotated, will line up with three of your lugnut holes in your wheel.

As for resistors, they should be already wired in line on the lights. Post a picture of your lights pigtail.
