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.

limb risers arent just for limbs!

Default limb risers arent just for limbs!

Saturday when I got off work I headed up to my buddies shop to help snorkel and lift his renegade 800 witch I might add is a bad SOB! Programmer, true dual exhausted, ITP rims, interco black Mombasa, K&N air filter, and now its snorkeled, and has a 2" lift. Anyways I pull up under the front heavy shop door that about 25' high and about 10' or 12' wide and lay on my horn. Its loud as hell cuz its an air horn lol! After plowing his eardrums out I proceeded helping him install is snorkel and lift. After we were done we stood around drinking and BSing a huge gust of wind came out of nowhere and blew through the shop whispering "KKKKKAAAAARRRRRMMMMMAAAAA", and right about that time I turn around with just enough time to see that big a$$ door slamming down on my Jeep! Luckily I spent about $40 dollars making my own limb risers that saved my hood from destruction. If don't have limb risers on your Jeep let me tell you they are a GREAT investment. Pictures are below.

Enjoy!
