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.

I think 35's will look fine with that much lift. I am a 2dr with 4.5 total lift running 35's and still have my stock shafts. Made it over a year and just tore my front boot off in Moab last week. No problems as of yet. Just keep in mind, at some point you will need to replace them. Good luck on the instal!

Bilsteins came in yesterday, waiting on the Teraflex kit and the front and rear trackbars. Hopefully this weekend i'll be turning a wrench.

You should be okay on stocks until your new wheels come in as long as youre not mounting larger tires on stock rims. With that said, the jeep might look temporarily goofy until the new wheels are on

Default New toys!

Well the Teraflex 3" lift and full flexarm kit is on, also added a Teraflex front and rear trackbar and Smittybilt SRC rocker guards. Looks pretty funny with no tires on it but, whatever. I'll get around to it. Rides awesome, smoother than stock, no pitch or roll at all and still absorbs bumps really really well. First pic was stock. I also upgraded all the speakers with the 77Kicker10's and that was worth it's weight in gold!

Looks great! Did you take measurements before and after? Id like to know how much lift you gained front and rear.

Like a jackass, I did not. I had it installed by a shop in Tucson and when I remembered to do that I had already loaded the whole kit in the back. It seems to be over 4" of lift and I was told to expect about 1" of settle after 500-1000 miles.
