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.

yes. as per the instructions its supposed to be up.. i had a friend that had done it too..
it corrects the angle the bar is at and helps with interfearance that is supposed to occur.

That's what I thought you meant, but wasn't clear. I installed mine with the crown of the bend facing up. It's pretty clear if you flip it over, with the crown on the bottom, there will be interference when flexing. That is without a relocation bracket like in the prev pic though. I can see where the relocation bracket will alleviate the interference problem, but the adj end is still upside down no matter how you look at it.

Damn...Thanks time to go and check if it is going to be a quick flip or not.

Yeah, it is the obvious choice but the springs are red and not black like I have for the 4" Skyjacker lifts and that's whats throwing me off here.

The track bar bolts to the lower hole in the JKS reinforcing bracket if you have a 4" or lower lift. The track bar and drag link need to be as close to parallel as possible.
