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.

Still under $1000 invested!!!

Went with the 4" Zone Offroad kit. I like it on the road. Off road to be determined?

Looks nice! For the price how could you go wrong!? I like the lights you have the bumper! You get anything special to mount it to stock bumper??

Just drilled into the cover between the bumper and grill and added a support underneath. The plastic isn't rigid enough alone to support them without a little modification.
Thanks for the compliments.
-$1000 build starts with selling your hard top!

Jeep looks good!

A guy I run with out here has a 3" Zone on his 11 Rubi and it is great on/off road.

Nice work.

Did you measure out exactly how much lift you got with the 4" zone? Looks a little bit higher! Jeep looks great

It measured right at 4 1/4" from center of wheel to fender. I figure it will settle some in the first couple of weeks/months. I left the front leveling kit in so the front is a bit higher now but a bumper and winch will fix that soon!
