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.

What was done to your JK this week?

Still to be done are:
EVO body armor and fenders
Atlas
EVO Tire Carrier
Poison Spyder Rocker Brawlers
EVO Skins
EVO Long Arm
LOD Rear Bumper
Warn 9.5 CTI
Rigid 50" Light Bar
Custom On Board Air
Currie AntiRock Swar Bar
6.4 VVT Hemi
Toyo 40 x 15.5 x 20
LiteDot's
Truck-Lite LED Headlights
TMD Hood
Rock Hard Roll Cage
PSC Ram Assist
Walker Evans Beadlocks

Can't remember the rest, need to look at the build list. Should be finished in another 5 weeks....
Are you doing the 40 spline rear? We are quite happy with ours and the shaft strength should be sufficient for handling the 40's with the Hemi power.

JUST AWESOME btw and will look forward to your show thread and many pics. Get EVO to get pics along the build for us all to see.
The Toyo 40's are the MTR.
I considered 42's but just like the 40's on 20's look better. There is no technical reason for my choice, I just like the look.

EVO is already taking photos, that's where I got the original photos of the double throwdowns prep work photos. I'm in Colorado so I can't see what is going on day to day. But I did make a trip out there last week. Even met wayoflife out there.

ps: yes we did it on our bikes....what was I thinking....

Default ARB on board compressor

Just installed the ARB air compressor on my 2011 Rubicon. Pretty easy install once I figured out how to get the dash apart. Installed the swith on the drivers A pillar. It works great and the gage set up from ARB and Northridge works great. You can add or blead air from the tires with the compressor attached to the hose and tire.

I had a small question on the hose attachment and as usual Dave at Northridge was right on it.

Thanks Northridge,

Randy

What kind of paint did you use? How did you get the bolt heads and set drain screw cleaned afterwards? I like this a lot and mine doesn't live in a garage so this would be great.

I was so WRONG! it has 2 cutouts on the bottom, open on the end and it is not a sealed anywhere else on the case, just all basically for looks. Could have had same/better results with replacing stock filter. Was very disappointed, should have just bought a K&N...

I didn't want raptor on the door hinge part since chips would be hard to touch up without a lot of thick build up. With the black duplicolor rattle can it is much easier to touch up nicks and such. I bedlined the hinge part in the door sill but left the little knob where the door mounts and the door hinges. The raptor is a two part requiring a bit more work and a air compressor to shoot. It would be good either way but I went for easy.
