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?

It's a 4 door. On rock krawlers site they recommend 11" travel bilsteins for their 2.5" lifts for the front cuz the springs are progressive rate and could use the extra travel. When I looked at my teraflex coils and the rk coils, the rk coils are 1" longer. With the.teraflex coils and rubi shocks with extensions I only had the factory bumpstop up front, now I have an 1.75" bump up front and still have the same amount of uptavel as I did with the tf and factory bump. Rk springs flex like crazy. I also have front lower spring retainers too. I didn't add a spacer for the front to level it out the progressive rate coils can handle the weight of the bumper and the winch

I'm on my phone. What size tires are those? I'm looking at the RK kit but I'm afraid my 35" will be tiny with my flat flares.

They are 37" BFG km2's but only measure up to 35.5 right now. And I also have a 1.25" rough country body lift. So if u don't have a body lift, it should look fine

I have the RK 2.5" max travel. 35s looked perfect until I put the flats on..

Did you go with the flats because of rubbing or going to 37s?
