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.

....so basically with all this trussing and dimple dying I'll be able to take my Jeep off a 200 ft cliff and the axle and cross member should survive

Wow, nice build! We had plans on finding a salvaged Jk and doing the same thing. You beat us to it! Keep it going!

thanks guys

Any info on the fuel cell?
that's a few weeks away, but info wise it will be aluminum and custom fitted into the cargo area off to the driver side, my goal is to have it a 20 gallon tank and molded to flow with the wheel well so I can keep a maximum amount of cargo area in tact...cause I have a 75 lbs. boxer who loves to ride

Build is coming along awesome. THIS should be on Powerblock TV.

I insist you get a better camera for the final shots. No more cell pics.

Awesome!! I like your comp cut much better than the one RockKrawler's 2dr had. It looks better retaining the metal where the lighting is and the angles are better also. visually. Seems to perform equally as well. I presume you will be doing some kind of crusher corners for strength also. Are you going LED tail lights or keeping the stock style ones? Those control arms are HUGE.
