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.

Almost all put back together with the new shoes, gears, spool, full float rear, etc, etc...down to just assembly then checking out a leak around the Atlas....9 days to race...

Looks to me like you've got a real good chance to win that race - great work!

Well....prerunning went great...course was incredible...about halfway through lap 1 we start heating up, get back to start/finish @ 3/4 temp...launch into one of the straights hoping it would hold that temp....then the needle buries in the gauge and turns out we lost the fan motor...sucks...but what can you do...
I've just now gotten over the disappointment so here are some pix lol





















smoke em if ya got em

quick question... I have my 4-door/coilover/tons build going over on another site, and I was wondering if you used any of the stock control arms mounts for your links (front or rear) or did you remove all the factory items from the frame before you started with the custom fab?
