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.

Really???? seriously???? You didn't see my post like 5 above his saying the same thing?

Maybe the shop is not the issue...

Yeah, I'd completely forgotten about the whole ESP thing, because I never had any issues after my lift.

Forgetting something like that isn't the end of the world, but didn't the shop notice the problem when test driving the Jeep? You'd think "professionals" would be able to diagnose a problem like that fairly easily.

Also, I just looked this kit up, it's 100% bolt on and $999 from Rough Country. Pretty good deal. My favorite part though are the FIRST page of instructions...

IMPORTANT NOTE : Upon completing the install of this kit the draglink must be adjusted to center the steering
wheel BEFORE the vehicle is driven. Failure to do so will cause a computer error, odd handling, and poor performance.


Edit: And the entire last page of the instructions is dedicated to centering the steering wheel and exactly how to do it and how it had to be done prior to driving or "failure to do so WILL cause computer error, odd handling and poor performance." Maybe they missed that page?

With it blatantly at the start and the finish could they have actually botched this? Now I really want to know.

I'd say the earliest is tomorrow. I don't know if it's at the dealership or trick trucks. Hopefully he gets his problem fixed early in the day, since the weather is supposed to be nice around here. He doesn't post much, but I hope he hops back on to fill everyone in on if it was due to them not recentering the steering wheel.
