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?

Took taillights off, cut away all excess plastic from bucket (retain the mounting screw areas) with fixture and wiring, then mounted them inside the body. Only wiring change is a wire side to side for the backup light, seen below license plate. I still need to add one on the pass. side and the added wire goes away.
Also you may note the missing center brake light. I cut the bracket down so the light is visible when the brake is on, but not visible otherwise. The main reason for this is the glare in the rear window left me no visibility to the rear when backing up and applying the brake. The glow in the spare tire is very noticeable and can be seen with my tire mount bike rack in place.
Pictures please......

My buddy had to trade in his JK this weekend he gave me his bumper and his cold air intake before he traded it in.

got everything at Menards. The pin is a little loose but anything bigger would barely fit and wouldn't be easy to take out when you disconnect. I also got grade 8 washers

Personally, I'd just remove the nut, keep the washers and drill a hole thru the factory bolt and add the clip pin.
