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.

The panhard would have to be pulled off for any offroading. But in my experience with triangulated and double triangulated front suspensions, they do not provide enough lateral support for street use on FWY's and such. You end up with shimmies making it feel like death wobble. Although hydraulic steering will help a lot with that. Pirate has some good articles on single and double triangulated front suspensions that are worth checking out.

Triple bypass shocks, 2 stages of compression and 1 rebound

I've never seen a vehicle with those setups have symptoms like said above on the road unless it was poorly designed with minimal triangulation.

This build up would be killing me....talk about being trapped in hell and having the ocean or something beautiful within sight and you couldnt just quite make it there.

All in all looks awsome and i know i would be going crazy with impatience!!!

GREAT BUILD!
