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.

Came out good my friend, good job. Now that you saved the money you would have spent on the bumper, fab up a winch plate and get a winch on that bad boy!

Yeah I def want to do that. Need to do some reading up on that. Does the winch go inside the bumper?

Do some searching on here for DIY stock winch plates, there are a bunch of threads. But yes, its supported by the frame studs and the metal part of your bumper. It sits lower that the plastic bumper(but looks good). More of a recessed look.... Again, do a search...you'll find lots of tips/photos, etc.

Looks sweet. I'm chopping up my bumper this weekend. Where'd you get the light bar from? I'm looking to add a bar as well, and I'm looking for some options.

Thanks alot.
I got it from amazon. Mopar light bar for jeep. I think it was about 60 bucks or so and then the light were about the same. Good luck. Best advice I have is get a good saws-all and a dremmel. you can trim just enough to gt the endcaps to fit perfect.
