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.

Lets see some Diff Covers and Built up axles...

Default Lets see some Diff Covers and Built up axles...

Planning on changing my diff covers when I go in this summer to service the axles. Wanted to get some ideas on after market diff covers and axle upgrades. Already added Artec gussets to mine. Wanted to see some trusses and other axles upgrades. Lets see em..

Here's my RuffStuff 3/8" thick steel covers the cover and the ring are both 3/8" so they should never fail.

I'm also very curious about the different cover options there are out there! I really want one with a built in drain plug (I never understood taking the whole cover off just to change the fluid)!! Right now, I'm between ARB and Mag-Hytech. What are some other options?

I've got PSC diff covers. Also RCV's sleeve and gusset on the front axle and Ten Factory rear chromoly shafts for the rear.

My axle housings have drain plugs there hard to see and easily overlooked.

The drain plug is not in the cover itself but in the bottom of the pumpkin itself.
