Notices
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?

jack and a piece of wood works good for the first time and a friend to help catch it when it pops off.... now i take them off weekly and i can just wiggle them off..I also didnt put the caps back on the bottom (think that helps..)

I've never seen a jeep that had them put back on when the doors have been off

I always put a dab of axle grease on the hinges when I put the doors back on. Makes them close smooth and super easy to remove.

Search JK Overlines. Can't mention the manufacturer here or will get slapped via PM. I love them so far, very sturdy, good fit/finish, and provide just what I was looking for.
