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.

They all look awesome

This bumper is definitely on my list of future mods. Going to turn the stocker into a stubbie while waiting for funds to be available for the Smittybuilt.

It's good to hear that you all like yours!

thanks for the props camp......i wish i could lie and say yes, so i could win a prize , but no i didn't paint them. they are sahara fenders. i chopped them so that the line would flow directly with my bumper. man, i wish you were closer cause i'm about to do a major upgrade on my ride........here is my build sheet:

upgrade axles to rubi D44's

5.38 gears

arb lockers

viair onboard air

rubicon express driveshafts front and rear

rubicon express 4.5" long arm

37" mtr kevlars

17" trailready beadlocks w/ black world series ring

expedition one rear bumper/tire carrier

redrock fab sliders with aluminum skins


any thoughts or suggestions for the build??

Default Update!

Welp! shes finaly installed! heres the pics! and a bit of the story.


This is my brothers girlfriends parents place. Her dad has a shop out back. Her brother races dirt flat track motorcycles. 450/600. its some pretty cool stuff there was races there on the sat night that i got to see. a lot of harleys on custom frames but alot of modified dirtbikes as well.

So here is the install...

Testing for fit....


tightening up the nuts


centre punching the holes on the cross beam... turns out its little off? must of hit a rock hahaha


up on the lifting... doing the drilling for the holes


brothers gf trying to look tuff and pretend to hold up the jeep while its on the lift


stopping for some freshly deep fried chicken wings and beer! and yes my brother is pounding that beer back haha


next morning.... winch mounted...


bought some red paint for the fairlead and shackles.. i know it wont last long... but it was easy enough to do... wouldnt take much to do it every now and then... ohhh and i re-bedlined my grill with E-Z liner... the first time i did it, it didnt have much texture... i realized if you spray form a foot to a foot and half away it gives it a lot more of a rough surface and looks alot better!
10 bucks at canadian tire! booo yahh!!



lights are all wired up... just gotta drill a hole and put in a switch... right now i just have the wires wrapped up and tapped up in the engine bay... dont worry no loose wires and loose ends haha



and a few from a far.. not the best but when i get a chance to wash it all up ill take more pictures....



hope you all enjoy!!

Ugh, missed that the install was this weekend, not next. Still PM me and let me know when you're going back down to Welland, we can hook up, maybe do the canal banks.
