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.

Default OME lift is on

To start off with I have a 4D 08 Rubicon with a Warn M8000 and warn winch plate, this droped the front Bumper 3/4". On Sunday We installed the OME HD lift and JKS front and rear adj. track bars, took the 2 of us 3 1/2hrs.
The Ride is Awesome, much ---much better than stock, this was on the HiWay. Have not been off road yet. Even the wife said that there were a lot of differance in the ride. The Lift really made the Rubi look more like a Jeep Im still running the stock tires untill they wear out, the 255s do not look bad at all to me. The lift raised the front approx.4 1/2" and the rear 2 7/8".
I want to thank a fine Young man (Tyler) for all his help, he did most of the work, its so great seeing young people willing to help a 66 year ol man out.
Also I want to thank David at Northridge 4x4.
Hope to have pics my Wed.
Have a safe and great day.

I have the MD OEM on mine and love it. I also have a M8000 that's waiting to be installed as soon as I pick out a bumper. I hope I don't have too much drop given the fact that it's a MD setup.

JP looks good

Looks great!! What makes these kit ride so nice, the springs or the shocks?? I thought I read where the stock Rubi shocks were about as good as you could get w/o spending big dollas!!
