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.

My mall crawler- recommendations welcome

Those seats look nice. Ive seen it mentioned a couple places in this thread and thought I should mention there isnt such a thing as a Rubicon spring. There are just different springs for different trim packages. For instance a Sahara and a Rubicon 4 door with dual tops and towing will most likely have the same springs (e.g. 18/58 rated or close to it.).

Noted, thanks. The springs that came with the Rubi shocks were probably from a 4 door with tow pack because they raised me up quite nicely!

What do y'all think about All terrains instead of these mud tires? These aint too bad, and I've rotated them already at 6k- but All terrains may make the ride alot more mall friendly.

Anyone? All terrains sound perfect for me and I already have spacers so maybe I can go to 34" without a lift and without any rubbing?

Mud Terrains will need to be replaced 28k - 32k miles.. if you go this route
All Terrains will last you longer and will withstand a bit more abuse.. I've always like the gear argent rubi wheels.

Thanks, Brooklyn, NY is pretty tough on tires. I can usually hack off around 20- 30%% of what typical drivers get on tires (and brakes ) .

Update- the leather seats from Star are holding up nicely.

Happy to have saved the money vs factory leather.

I have finally saved up for Anvil color fender flares and hard top.

Took a year longer than I thought.

LET THE SHOPPING BEGIN!

Any recommendations? Saving money is good- but I don't want to chop the stock fender nor sand and paint it.

Thanks friends!

Yeah 34" tires work (305 70 17 on Rubi rims), I have a 1" lift only and they fit even without spacers, tho limits turning radius up front to 1 and a half turns of steering wheel

Lighting for sure- I am ordering up some LED headlights, but can't decide.

The Quadratec ones look fairly priced and have good reviews, but they also have a Q logo which...
