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.

Parts, for the most part


my instruction manual


back taken apart


back together with spidertrax on


shot of my work station


front


JKS sway bar link vs. stock


back on the ground completed


before








now








Ok! I wanted to thank a couple ppl, JulietKilo, for hooking me up with the lift, shocks, and wheels spacers for an awesome deal! thanks again man! And also WOL for the awesome write up!

Over all the install was pretty straight forward being as I am 19 and had zero experience working on Jeeps before now, and doing it alone sucked and went slow, but i learned alot and know how my Jeep works now and could do it all again 10x faster now!

Oh, and thanks for the pix. I've been trying to work up the courage to do this myself.
