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.

Show where you got your Jeep stuck

That's similar mud to what I got stuck in. Looks dry on top but the second you put weight on it it breaks and you fall through into thick mud.

Couldn't have said it better myself, that's exactly what happened lol. I also went in too slow, I probably could've made it with more speed. But that plastic airdam made the recovery even harder, as it just scooped mud up into my engine compartment. I was hoping to rip it off and say the jeep was broken in, but that plan didn't work

This hole proved to be a lot deeper that I expected. I even eased into it, but once my front end dropped in there was only one way to go, forward... The front bumper ended up becoming a bulldozer of thick clay mud. Had to winch out. This was at Shiloh Ridge offroad, near Alto, Tx.

Actually Allstate put it against comprehensive since it was during a storm so I didn't have any troubles. They also replace new vehicles during 1st 2 years at price between MSRP and Invoice if you have the correct coverage, best part is I paid a little under invoice! Left more money for my new Jeep.
