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.

Did you replace your SS as well. I am hoping that with the SS and front uppers, it wont be flighty, and highway driving will become more relaxed again.

Love the ride though...

Anyone have the standard coils? Pics? What's the difference between the LT shocks and the regular yellow ones?

The LT shocks are about 4" longer.

I am looking at the 2.5 or 3 inch lift... The guy at the local off road shop said that he has found that with OME lifts the ride is actually better and smoother than stock on the road.. Any truth to this?

The ride is a little softer. Remember that with any lift you're changing the geometry of the suspension, so technically the drive-ability and handling are not going to be as good.

I think I can get another half inch of droop, if I lengthen my front sway bar links.

Another flex shot of my rig:

This is a very subjective question based on who you ask. Are they running medium duty or Heavy duty springs.
In my case running HD springs I would say its as good as it was prior to the lift if not better. This is all I can ask for given roughly 3" of lift.
No complaints
