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.

I just left my dealer again.
They've had my jeep for another extended period of time (off and on for the last 4 months), trying to narrow down the problem by replacing parts one by one.
Parts they have said they have replaced to fix 4wd noise are:
Carrier
Bearings
Driveshaft
Transfer Case
Axle shaft
Viscous clutch

They told me the cause of the problem is that I turn too sharp in 4wd.

Last week my traction control warning light and ESP BAS warning light came on.
they say it needs a new clock spring....
and that it will continue to need replacement if I leave my JK out in the weather.

Gotta love their excuses . . . next time they will tell you not to take it out of the garage.

Well dude, no offense... But you leave it out in the weather WITH THE TOP OFF! No electronics are going to play nicely when they get wet like that...

wtf? you cannot turn sharp in 4wd? I wish they put that in the owners manual cause this is my first jeep (out of 5) that is not capable of sharp turns in 4wd. WTF? They are dumb as rocks. Tons of guys have had clocksprings break. They were on backorder at the dealer for a long time. What a bunch of horse shit.
