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.

Default Extended Thule bike rack

Everyone who has a Thule T2 (519XTR) hitch rack knows that it won't fit with the spare tire. Rather than get an extender hitch I got a 2ft piece of 2x2 square steel, measured carefully, drilled some holes, had my local auto mechanic weld a nut on the inside (for anti wobble pin), gave it some spray paint, and transferred all the hardware over. Now I have a longer rack with no wobble, holds 2 bikes, and folds up!
