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 TCS Demo Vid

I bought a new floor jack when the yellow one in the vid finally went bad after a twenty year service life. There's a pump rod seal leaking and I can't find a repair kit but before I let it go I used it for one more job. With front and rear wheels off the drive and locked in 4lo I had the wifey capture the test and I'm impressed with the result. I'm also glad that I didn't tear the front tire on the old jack as I was unaware it shifted. Maybe a better test would be to lift alternate wheels off the pavement but this torque transfer was fairly instant. I did warn you it is schlocky, didn't I ?

That was a great test of the TCS. Yeah, it would have been a shame to rip that tire! Did you ever try opposite tires by chance?
