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've been busy...

Default I've been busy...

And thought I would show off a little.

For starters... Painted dash pieces 'hunter green' and installed a new JVC stereo and Polk speakers...

Default Part 3

And installed 17/59 springs from a JKU... I found a great deal on eBay... These spring only have 10 miles on 'em according to the seller... And when I got them today, they didn't have so much as a scratch or scuff...

These new spring made a HUGE difference in ride and hold up my JK very nicely... Just the look I have been wanting.

Not pictured... I installed a new CAT Back exhaust with a DynaMax Ultraflo SS Muffler today as well. This setup has a very nice rich mellow sound... And it talks to ya pretty good when you stick your foot in it. It has very mellow note when at cruising speeds too.

Hmmm... What to do next?

Thanks...

The Stereo sounds great... Very impressed with the Polk speakers. But I think I my need to add a sub.

The modded sound bar still doesn't like real "deep" bass. Still a HUGE difference over that stock setup. And plenty loud enough to hear it going down the road with the doors and top off.
