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.

I think it is safe to say the axles will be beefy. The support is just what the doctor ordered! I guess we will wait for Monday for new pictures.

That stretch in the wheel base looks so sick. Love it. The comp cut looks great, can't wait to see this thing when finished. It is going to easily be the sickest 2 door JK out there. No doubt. I love that its silver too, makes me a little jealous... OK... ALOT JEALOUS!!! haha. Seriously though, sick build!!!

So with the axle being pushed back that far the spring perches definitely need to be welded further back as well correct?

It will be interesting to see how 16" coilovers get put in the rear. The frame being so wide back there doesn't really allow for a coilover.....or a air bump.
