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.

Ordered some AGM coilover sliders for my kings, dynomax rock crawler exhaust, and five new shoes 35" Cooper STT. Waiting sucks.

Great idea! I wonder if a Harley highway peg would work. Looks like a super idea!!!

Man those look great. I'm really wanting a set of these. How difficult are they to install?

Took fender off. Used 1/2" bolts and screws. Took off tow hooks. Ornamental only. Or just drill into crash can and use lag bolts. Not solid but safe. Only 4 bolts hold bumper anyhow. Rugged ridge d ring and holder were 70$. Still cheaper than new bumper. Not by much.

Really easy, about an hour from start to finish. I took my time and made everything as clean as possible.

I got the idea off of another forum...

Here are the parts needed:
BMX foot peg
One 3/8 x 4 eye bolt (if I remember correctly)
Two 3/8 fender washers (I cranked these until they were dimpled to keep the eye bolt somewhat centered)
Three "normal" 3/8 washers (one inside the peg, two above and below the hinge)
One 3/8 x 1 1/2 bolt (holding eye bolt to peg)
Two 3/8 nuts (one inside peg, one on eye bolt)

Hopefully this helps. Attached is a close up.
