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.

That jeep needs to go on a diet. Not really but that thing is bad.

We are really stoked with how it's doing...it has it's sensitive moments but she tracks good and straight on the highway at about 70-80 mph...not even a hint of gettin scary aside from passing an 18 wheeler lol...I can still smoke and drive without being all over the road HA...around town I can take a curve with the best of 'em thanks to ORO's SwayLOC up front...and with the Hemi she still got ass to her and turning some heads too lol...we had issues for a little bit and figured out one of the tires was out of balance so we threw on the spare and problem solved...still needs some adjusting in the air bumps on the rear and have to run power to the ARB compressor for the front locker...but other than that we're good to go!...tomorrow we have our first Jeep Show n' Shine in Eden NC so wish us luck...tryin to win Alex a new TV lol...then next week we'll be hitting the rocks!
