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.

Tonka Update....not pretty.

Default Tonka Update....not pretty.

I havent posted anything new in a while.

Heres my baby with the underbelly ripped out.



They wouldnt let me get closer to take better pics.

After a 2 month wait, and them having it another week, the dealership decided I need a new front carrier assembly and bearings.
Today theyve announced I need a new transfer case as well.
This is after replacing my alternator, fan motor and assembly, and intake temp sensor.

Ive never had this much damage that wasnt from a wreck.
Just a simple trip with the Forum guys to Barnwell.

I no longer have extra vehicles, and they wont spot me a loaner...so Im bummin rides for now.

We'll see what they find next.

wow 2 months, and i thought i was lost without mine for 2 days


so assuming you have a monthly on it, does the dealer pay it

my guess is not, they should at least give you a loaner.
