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.

I am going to add more 12ga. steel to the front angle tomorrow then all I have to do is weld fenders but the rims I ordered over a month ago haven't come yet so I will probably take my spare off my jeep and steal my brothers spare so that I can get those done and then it will be ready for skinning and paint

yeah what I meant from that is that I had posted updated photos on page 3 pages 1 and 2 are still there.


thanks everyone
unfortunately I am not going to be able to finish it in time for my trip next week not because of me but because the wheels I ordered over 5 weeks ago are not going to get here untill the day I am planning on leaving for tahoe and the west coast.
but I have almost got all the metalwork done another hour or two and it will be ready for sandblasting.
