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.

How long have you been collecting parts? I think this is what my plan is going to entail. Start buying everything slowly and then build when I have everything. Looking forward to your build.

I bought everything over the course of about 2 months. I have had the jeep about 5 months, couldn't handle the soccer moms on 35s making fun of me all day
