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.

I saw the pictures of the Jeep display you took.

Any ideas if the Sunburst Orange is going to be a color option for '09? I see Ram 1500 all the time with that color, and I love it!

I'd settle for a pair of spring loaded hood clips for now.

WOL, I have some J8 questions!

1: Those rocker guards/sliders..... will they be available, or are they already out there???

2: I'm assuming the J8 Got it's height from the leaf springs.... any Idea how much "lift" it gets over the stock JK (I love the ride height on those 35's!)

3: Where can I find those Signal Guards?!

To the best of my knowledge, they didn't have a JK on display at the show.

Yes, I believe it just reuses the existing tranny - auto or manual.

Yes. 5x5.5 bolt pattern though.

Unfortunately, no. These are made for the Egyptian military.

Yes, there is a very high likelyhood that it will be a new 09 color. Patriots come in this color now as well.

I've been told these were nothing more than windshield wiper springs and were installed as a test to address hood flutter.

1. I'm pretty sure they are just the ORT rocker guards and are available now.
2. Actually, the leafs are only in the rear and unfortunately, I do not know how much lift over stock it had - sorry.
3. If you are refering to the ones on the grill, I believe they are a MIL Spec part.
