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.

Never expected this from SEARS!

Found this video on YouTube..... I figured I'd share it. It's not what I expected from sears. It gives you an idea how easy it is to wrench on your jeep on the weekend. Hope this helps someone.

Sears is hitting the auto market hard with their latest marketing. 3 trucks at SEMA for Sears Craftsman tools.

Thaty was painful to watch. I myself would never install 3' spacers, give the spring way too much chance of popping out. This had to been made for business men who never picked up a wrench before and want to impress the office secretary with their new lifted jeep haha.

It's nothing bad... They lift two vehicles in that video. The JK is first it's not very long.

Why was that painful to watch? I run a 3" spacer up front on my JK and I'm not a business man trying to impress anybody... I also have adjustable trackbars and swaybar links... I will eventually get coils, but I don't see anyhing wrong with spacers if your not a hardcore offroader..

Regardless of anyones views on spacer lifts etc... I think its pretty cool that there are shows encouraging guys to start tinkering around and learning about their vehicles. I've met WAAAAAAAAAAAY too many people that didn't even know how to change their own oil.

Just my $0.02...

What about the front trac bar? Wouldn't the front axle need to be re-centered after a 3" lift? They didn't show it for the front, just installed a bracket in the rear.
