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 Stage 3

Well, the time has come stage 3 is here. I took the jeep in Thursday to get a teraflex long arm upgrade, drag link flip kit, track bar drop bracket, sector brace, rock krawler hd tie rod, and evo gussets put on. Turns out a lot more got done than just these things . First I would like to thank James at JV Fabs . He does amazing work. If you are in the Huntsville area look him up.

1. He took the axle off and completely gussetted it up. He reinforced the upper mounts, the track bar mount, evo gussets, and made some lower control arm skids.




He is putting all new ball joints in, because the old ones were trashed.

2. Next he took the mopar bumper and turned it into a stubby bumper, it looks 1000x better . He cute off the ugly looking crush cans and removed the factory tow hooks to allow D-ring mounts that he fabbed up. Looks very very good. This picture is before he made the D-ring mounts I'll update the pictures as soon as I pick it up tomorrow.





3. He then installed the lift and all other parts.

I'll update tomorrow when i pick the jeep up. I can't wait to get my baby back

Sweet move on the stubby. Mine has the built in fogs, so it would be more like a mid width. Seems like that should only cost an hour of labor to complete.

Yeah not much but the D-ring mounts took a little longer. Turns out the ball joints were destroyed so we should be getting those in tomorrow and then picking it up Wed.
