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?

What's all involved with new diff covers? Gaskets, torquing, etc?

RR grille insert.



Also got my Mopar fuel door (painted the nuts black) and my rampage taillight guards.



Cleaned up the Jeep and used some Turtle Wax Ice on the fenders. I couldn't get my hands on some 303, but I'm extremely surprised how well the Ice worked on the fenders. Had some bad mud stains from my adventures and the Ice worked pretty well.

It was actually easy to put on minus cutting off the old brackets and I was doing my axle sleeves and gussets at the same time along with new unit bearings and ujoints but the measurements for the links that were in the instructions was spot on I just stretched the wheelbase a bit also the ride is nice and smooth on the road and interstate but still surprisingly stable in the turns, I sometimes catch myself running 80-85 and have to back off cause I have remind myself it is pretty tall

Great. Thanks, I'm actually in a debate over the Rusty's advanced radius arm kit or the OME long travel kit from northridge.

Worked on running the wires for my CB and what a pain in the ass that is! I got them all in and then realized that I didn't leave enough exposed to plug it in. Guess I have to pull everything back off. lol

Rigid D2s on the A pillars. . . FYI, the guys at THMotorsports were great to deal with and their pricing is great. The box showed up when they said and in one piece!


I mounted the lights on the Poison Spyder brackets because they sit nice and low. Once I aim the fixtures I'll put some flat black touchup on the bolts and nuts...
