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.

Sorry about the bad luck but increadible jeep im pretty jealous... anyways wondering if you have done anything with the stock front seats or if you would like to get rid of them... if the price is right I have wanted to try replacing the back seats with 2 stock front buckets but cant seem to find any anywhere or for a price I can handle if I dont like it in the long run.

Wow, nice Jeep. Im sorry to hear about you accident.
I like the hemi option much better than the supercharger, have you thought of super charging or turbocharging the hemi? That would give ridiculous power and it seems your drivetrain and suspension would hold the power, maybe not the tranny though.
Take it to a welding shop for the snorkel, dude, did you not see the cage they built. Do you have any other pictures of Carolina Truggies work for curiosity sake?
Are you going to go with a fuel cell and dump that massive tumorous gas tank or keep the factory one? How do you plan on having them build your cage and protection?

Probably won't ever SC the hemi...if I did anything I would put 6.1 cam heads manifold on it for extra power.

honestly I hated the idea of having a snorkel...(purely looks though they function well)...so now that I have a less "fragile" set-up, a snorkel will be down the road

I will be going with a fuel cell, RCI most likely....Alex has a website that has pics of some of the other things he's fabricated

Sounds good, but forced induction is the new thing. I like their site.
Look at Fuel Safe and Jaz fuel cells.
Ill be checking out this post!
