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.

Yes indeed they are. Plus, I lost almost 1" when I installed the bumper and winch. I wheeled with it a couple times and, as expected, realized that a 2.5" Teraflex coil lift and shocks is next on the list!

I did have some reservations about buying this particular skid, primarily because I could not find many comments about it on the forum. However, since I was looking only to cover the expensive electronic disconnect, and my requirements were weight, simplicity of install, clean lines, and a reasonable price, this one won hands down. I know that it is not a "full" front skid, but that is not what I was looking for. At around $55 US, it met all my needs and is an excellent product!

I had not planned on 18" tires, but I came across a used set for such a good deal I could not pass it up. I am aware of the size limitations and cost, but these work for me now.
Did you decide to keep them? I never got a reply when I ask to come and see them.

After doing a couple of pulls with the winch last week, I decided to lose the steel cable and clunky roller fairlead. The new synthetic line and hawse fairlead came in today. As soon as I get the orange chafe guard I'll be spooling the line up!
