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 new setup.

Default My new setup.

Here is my 2008 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited X. 6 speed with a 12000 LB milemarker winch. 2.5" OME heavy rate springs for the front with the extra weight of the bumper and winch. It has the 2" coil spacers in the rear. Th tires and rims were added 5 days ago and they are the XD Addicts machined and black in the 17x9 with the 4.5" backspacing. They are wrapped in 35x12.50 Nitto Mud Grapplers. I know a lot of people have these tires but I love them more since I bought them. They sound good coming down the road. The next projects are to regear it, rear bumper tire swing combo and to lose the ugly stainless nerf bars for some black bars. Let me know what you think. I love it.

Default steps

The only two reasons I have the steps are because they were on it when I bought it new and my wife is 4'10" and pregnant and she would have more trouble getting in it without them. I plan on selling them and buyng metal to build my own.

Default yea i know

I wanted to paint the valve stems black but since I put the factory tmps back in I didnt have time to paint them. I want to build the rock rails and paint them black. I went and hit a few dirt roads this afternoon but none were real wet I am itching to try it out but havent gotten the nerve yet.

A little bedliner in a can goes a long way as well.
Great looking Jeep by the way. Tough looking.
