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 Just bought my first Jeep!!!
2010 Wrangler Unlimited Sport. Now seeing I am a newb I was going to ask for advice on what to do next. I'm not talking about lifting, tires, rims, bumpers etc. My first goal is to make it run as best as it can and to last me as long as possible. I don't do much offroading although it's very plausible that my time spent offroad will increase exponentially with this new Jeep (just need to find some places here in Florida)

Attached are some pics!

Thanks!

As your maint. items come up, e.g. oil change, diff oil change (every 20k-30k), transfer case oil change (every 20k-30k), ATF change (every 30K), switch to royal purple. It helps everything run cooler.

Congrats. My JK is my first Jeep also. Had it for over 2 years now and I still love it. Enjoy.

Like thom1879 said, keep up with your normal maintenance. You may consider getting some grab handles.

Enjoy!

Anything I should add? Someone mentioned I should throw in a B&M Supercooler and also Transkit. Good idea?

Browse craigslist for some rubicon takeoff wheels and tires. They look and perform a lot better than the steelies
