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.

turbines are neat as hell. I think you should put one in a JK, running a generator. Then have the generator power mega electric motors on each wheel. You would have gobs of traction, retarded torque, insane HP, and more stuff to break down than you could shake a stick at. A wheelers dream.
