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.

Its nice to see people build their own mods. Its so rare to see it with newer Jeep owners. Owners of older Jeeps often build their own stuff (mostly due to budget constraints). So its good to see.

I like your design a lot. 14 gauge is a bit thin, but its not like the bumper is constantly being smashed into things. Chance are, it would hold up fine with the proper internal bracing.

Looks great. Sounds like you have some other ideas in the works and can't wait to see the new bumper with your new custom fenders. Keep up the good work! You deserve a few of these

Great work! I wish I had a shop or even a garage that wasn't cluttered so I could so similar. Having the space and tools would save a lot of money and being able to personalize it must be rewarding. Good to see someone from the "SHOW-ME" state showing how its done! I often miss home.

Default Really clean angles

That is a really nice build, I love the angles and how clean it is... here is a pic of mine I built it a little heavier with 1/4" plate and 7/8" solid bar for the stinger

So, I sold my 4 door a while ago and bought a tj. I would love to build more bumpers so, if anyone wants one just message me. I haven't checked this forum in a long time, but i still get messages in my email.
