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 Thorny's 2012 JKU build!

So yesterday I dropped my bone stock '12 4dr Rubicon off at Rebel Offroad to get totally built up. I've been bugging the hell out of Rebel's sales Rep Chris for the last 30 days or so, really appreciate all the patience and advise he's given me when we were making out my shopping list.

Sooo glad we're at the stage where stuff starts happening!! I going to be posting up picks as the build progresses. So let the countdown begin!:o

I probably could have done everything myself, but I've never really messed with coil overs before and I just feel better letting some professionals handle it, also there's the time factor. There's no way I could have everything done anywheres close to a timely manner. That was the major factor, the amount of time it would've taken me to do everything.

I told them about our run Taher and Chris assured me that my Jeep will be done before we start the Expedition.

Yeah, it's a bolt on coil over but it's Rebel Offroad's design. I could try and describe it here but it'd probably easier to just go www.rebeloffroad.com and check it out. Pretty cool kit!

Are you doing front and rear coilovers? Their rear design looks interesting.
