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 Here goes nothing

Just ordered a Teraflex 3" full flexarm kit with some Bilstein's. Going on my stock 11 2 door, I'll do the install myself and hopefully all goes well. Seems pretty straight forward and un-complicated. All else fails I have a BIG hammer! If there's any "what ever you do, don't!...." please tell me know or forever hold the pieces. Good folks on this forum, great info and everybody wants to help (Us new guys appreciate it). Here's a before photo, more to come lata!

As far as the shafts go, if I'm mainly on-road can it wait for a little while? And when I do replace them do I have to do both or can I do the front first and the back later.

Once you lift your 2dr 3" or more your gonna want to replace to rear drive shaft. The front can wait a little longer but it's gonna fail sooner or later. Just keep an eye out for the grease splatter ring under your jeep. Remember you can always remove your front drive shaft and still have a drivable 2 wheel drive jeep. No body wants that though lol. Start saving for them now

Do you have auto or man trans?
