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 Unlimited Rubicon with 4" lift and 37" Iroks lots of pics

Jeep stats 4" Superlift
17x9 Pro Comp 8179 with 4.75" of Back Spacing
37x12.50-17 Super Swamper Irok Radials
Trimming is necessary on the front air dam, and rear fender wells

Overall I gained 4.5" in the front and 4" in the rear on the lift

Intalled my 4" Superlift kit on Monday. Installation was pretty straight foward. Anything that was not covered in the instructions, wayoflife's write up on the 3" kit did cover it. Thanks for the great write up wayoflife.

The 4" superlift kit is a BASIC kit, meaning it comes with the bare necessities. coils, shocks, front adjustable track bar, rear track bar bracket, brake line extension brackets, rear swaybar links, cam bolts.

I'm planning on getting a rear adjustable track bar, adjustable upper and lower control arms for the front and rear, and BETTER shocks.

Ride quality is alot better than I expected, there is a little bit of wander due to the caster being off a little. This will be fixed with adjustable control arms. I have not experienced any bump steer. You can definately feel the bumps now, but with better shocks should get better.

I love the wheels! I tried to find them on Pro Comps website, but no luck...

I found 8023 and 8089, but no 8179. Where did you get 'em?
