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.

May was a good month!!!

Default May was a good month!!!

I got a boatload of stuff finished and all set up including adding 35" MTR kevlars, customizing some ARB diff covers that are now hiding the Superior 5.13's that I had put in. Giving a deeper growl and getting the stock muffler out of the way is a MBRP off road SS exhaust system. I added a stubby antenna so the factory one would stop banging my windshield lights when I drive on the highway. I installed the Smitty XRC rearw/ tirecarrier to support the weight of the new tires and not destroy my tailgate. There are a few more things in the works and then I'm about finished! I'll be heading out to Rausch in a week or two and I'll have better pictures but until then here are a few...
stubby...


MBRP exhaust...

35inch MTR's




ARB diff covers and 5.13's!!!


and finally XRC rear!

The rack looks PRETTY dope. Good work. Dude, do not go to rausch until you have a skid on your: oil pan (cracked mine $500), your evap, and everything else for that matter. My cats got beaten up to. Protection! Keep in mind that even jks with lifts and bigger tires are still very very exposed to mother earth's wrath. Looks sick man, have fun and be careful!

Looks good for sure but one question..... How hard is it to take off your top now that you have the rack on?

Thanks guys.... The rack makes it even easier to take the hardtop of. the front extension is just 4 thumbscrews and then the sections pull out. The main section stays on the hardtop and they act as handles so it makes lifting the top off really easy. The light bar stays on the Jeep. I've been really busy and have been meaning to swap tops out for Summer...
