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.

Hmm. Didn't Cherokees always have the spare tire inside? How did those guys deal with this? Nose plugs?

I don't know why you guys refuse to believe me... but this is not a good idea. The voice of experience....

I started with it Angled with a prerunner style mount. Took up WAY too much space....



Then I moved it FLAT figuring bolting it directly to the floor it would help with Cargo, but it was still too big and in the way and still too stinky.


Finally I moved it up on to the cage, which was great for cargo, not so great for smell.




Eventually it wound up staying home, as I NEVER once tore a Krawler. My weekend wheelin' trips were 3-4 hammers trails a day every other weekend from September to June. Never once tore a Krawler. Never.

The hammers ate MT/Rs for breakfast. Tore a number of them. Mostly ripped the sidewalls out.

The Krawler is a modified radial (cords don't go 90* radial, but at about 80 something degrees, so the cords cross and don't tear as easily).

With the 37" krawler I had a spare and never took it off the trailer. With the 35s I never bought a spare.

Of course, it's because we can't afford the rear bumper with carrier, don't want to damage the tailgate, and are looking for options.
