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?

Replaced the crappy Made in Mexico stock speakers in my 2007 X with some Infinity speakers from a 2012. Huge difference! The weight alone indicates a much better quality product.

Yes. I have access to a sheet metal and a break. The CB mount started as a U shaped piece of i think 22ga but it may be 24ga metal and I trim it down to what I needed.

The antenna was an 18ga piece.







Speaker arrived today so I put that in.

Tomorrow, I'm going to be installing(or at least attempting to install) a Die Hard Platinum P1 Group 34. The dimensions seem to suggest that it will fit in my '12(which I got from Project-JK's Group 35 install). The difference between the two batteries is 15% more CCA(850 vs 740), and 35% more reserve capacity(135 vs 100)... So it was too tempting to resist the desire to at least TRY considering they cost the exact same. I can try to make a write-up for it if anyone would be interested(which also depends on it working haha!)
