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 Flying the flag for the Fourth

Just fabbed up a mount to fly the flag for the 4th coming up. Anybody else doing the same?? I several cars honk in approval and some thumbs ups, and lets not forget the little kid in the back seat with his face pressed against the window trying to see the awesomeness. So who else is flying a flag?? I'll try to take better pictures later.

Currently I am in Afghanistan so I will be flying the flag on my right shoulder, but thank you to all who fly the flag proudly. It's great to see people show their American pride! And it always looks great on the back of a Jeep

I used PVC pipe secured in two spots on my tire carrier. The bottom I drilled through the pipe in two spots to slip a ubolt through, and tightened it down against the carrier. The top of the pip is just ziptied, it's not going anywhere with that ubolt there.
then to keep the flag in the pipe I drilled through the pipe and flag stick and put a ziptie throught that. I'll show more pictures tomorrow. Ive had it up to 45mph and no problems. And it's as easy as cutting a ziptie and taking the flag off if I want to do highway driving. (not sure if the flag stick can take 75mph winds but who knows. I don't want to find out)
