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?

Nothing huge but swapped out my teraflex quick disconnects for the JKS ones...way better! The bushings on my TF ones were shot in a year

My buddy works at a car audio shop and he did it for me. Only took 2 hours so it wasn't bad at all. I think the hardest part is getting the replacement tweeter to fit in right

I painted it black. This setup should definitely take care of your lighting needs!
Yeah exactly. I made a piece of steel, milled it, drilled it and painted it black. And 5min before the end of working day I found a piece of aluminium in my shelf.......
So did it all again but no time for spraying it black left.

I wonder if this bracket would be a good choice ??

Altough a bit pricy it looks nice and might fit perfectly.

I haven't seen these brackets, but I tried brackets from three manufacturers. Each time I thought, oh these will fit, but no luck. The passenger side wiper interfered each time. I tired KC, Rugged Ridge, and one other manufacturer, but I can't remember the name. I ended up going with brackets from Rugged Ridge. I like the look of how we did it.
