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.

1st photo taken back on her feet. The 40's are on, but Walker Evans wheels on back order so we'll have to do the bump stopping and trimming with the factory wheels.

Had to remove the rear bumper to start trimming. 40's are very close to the pinch welds in the front and rear so they were trimmed. Beginning to flex and bump stop.

Replaced the twin steering damper with PSC Hydraulic Assist: (Didn't know I had hit the tie rod and sway bar skid that many times already)

Preparing for the on-board air and ARB system install. Using a ViAir 400 pump, 2.5 gallon tank, custom manifold for 150psi with relief valve and quick connect for air tools/tire inflation, a regulator to drop the pressure for the ARB solenoids, and a Daystar switch panel. 20# CO2 tank with a Powertank bracket for back up. Waiting on another switch body to arrive for my crawling lights.
