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.

Dam its to bad you live so far away. I want to drive with other crawlers. Post pics when your done.

50 is AWESOME!! Wife would kill me

Most I had was 18 at one time. Few FG trucks and Marine Specialties Enforcer and Emaxx-Ofna Buggies- Losi XXX4's Lots of street cars - nitro and electric. I just biult a drift car with the HPI D Box but no real room to run it. Tamiya's even a Bruiser when they first came out and my first real RC Car was a Tamiya Boomerang.

If you need any help with your crawler let me know.

I've always been interested in one of these, but i don't know a thing about them. I was looking at the Axial AX10 kit on e-bay. Are kits like that hard to put together? Do they come with good instructions? I think it would be a fun project. Also, do kits like that come with everything you need, or is there other stuff you have to buy to be operational. Sorry to be so clueless....

Thanks! Not a cheap hobby for sure, but I'm really thinking about building a crawler. I've been checking the videos on You Tube. Looks like fun, and I think it would be a nice winter project building it. I'm thinking if I got the truck to start, I could start working on it and then add the other necessary parts a piece at a time. That way it wouldn't seem so expensive!

WOW, those are some sick RC's! I am an moderate R/C'er, not real big into it. I have a Nylint Rock Crawler(stock), Niko rock crawler(broke), and a Traxxas E-maxx(stock). ONe of these days I would like to get a Wheelie King and do the King Krawler conversion on it, that would be sweet!
