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.

looked up netting on google and this site came up usnetting.com

lots of different options to choose from, including camo! when I do mine I'll likely buy some of their stuff and then use some of the one inch connectors your using to secure it. maybe some bungies if I'm feeling really ghetto and/or need to secure some slack

Revolucion!, I was trying to think of a solution for the gap in the rear when the top is up
but going w/o windows.
I like the velcro on the window bar.
Guess it's back to the sewing machine

Had the top up yesterday w/o windows as it looked like rain while we were
at one of our daughter's lax games.
It was a short drive home and our dog didn't attempt any escapes through
the opening, but....

Risk, I looked at usnetting too.
I just wanted to make something myself that I could change as I went along
if need be. Something premade just would not allow me to do that.
Post some pics when you get yours.

My wife's parents live in the area of the Great Lakes base.
They live in Lake Forrest.

well, i'm no great shakes with a sewing machine, so I can't exactly just fab one up.

but I have no problem buying an existing net, and cutting some out of it to make it fit right, and then putting a d-ring or something there to reconnect or if I have to, sew by hand. (example, these nets are pretty sqaure, but the roll cage in the rear is not). well see how it goes, but I imagine it'll be a fun little project.

jeep- my anti drug, lol

Good job!

I know EXACTLY how much work goes into making your own nets and anyone who does it is crazy... but in good company!

Yep, those nets are pretty cool. I was thinking about them before I ordered the Caro "Nack" from Camp Crocker......
