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?

Installed entirely new audio system. Memphis components, Pioneer bluetooth head unit, 12'' Pioneer comp sub.

Also took of the 2.5'' Teraflex budget boost and installed a 4'' Rough Country x-series kit w/ dual stabilizer.

Think next week I will do the fender cut mod, tint my taillights/turn signals, grill mod, and possible plasti-dip my grill.

As far as alignment goes, set the toe to 1/8", and the caster should be 5-6 degrees, but without adjustable control arms, you can't change it. No other alignment is necessary.

I've heard both good and bad about aligning even adjustable control arms. For instance, a friend of mine runs a RK 3.5 on his JKU and finished the install and the rig drive fine. 3 months later he decided to get an alignment done. Now it acts totally different and rides like crap according to him. Of course everything is as close as possible to computer specs. I run a RK 2.5 on my 2 door. Not getting an alignment for this reason. You will need to address the drag link however.

Not sure if this is true for everyone across the board, but after a lift install. Alignment is not needed unless you are way out of alignment to Begin with.
