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 Pictures from saturdays wheeling, broke a part.

So I lifted my JK last week and jumped at the chance to go offroading with a buddy in his Silverado. I was going through anything and everything and I got stuck a few times. I do not go wheeling much and was not prepared, had no shovel and found myself burried in clay/mud to the front bumper.

Ended up ripping the cover that goes on just under the bumper, covers the track bar, drag link, etc. Doesn't seem like a major issue, I can leave it off?

Here are the photos











Using a damn snowbrush as a shovel


Plastic cover laying in mud pit


Had an absolute blast!

I ripped mine off with about 3k on it lol same thing happened got stuck in a hole. Had to sleep in my jeep for 2 hours before my buddy with his lifted power stroke to come pull me out at 5 in the morning. Needless to say I got a winch the first chance I got.

I was going to say the same thing. If your going to hit the water better get a snorkel. A winch will get you unstuck but a tow truck will have to get you if you hydrolock. Either way looks fun.

The picture makes it look much worse, the deepest point was 24"-28" I would guess. Either way, a snorkle is on the growing list of parts I want to aquire

Looks like a fun, successful trip. I am still waiting for my schedule to open up for a little off-roading.
