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?

EVO Skid plates are now installed. A two hour job in a home garage, working alone. I painted them red because,...... well just because.

Default Knuckles Off Road (KOR) front and rear bumpers and Rigid Ind

Picked up my KOR bumpers this past weekend and got them installed throughout the week. I also put a set of Rigid Duallys in the front and rear and Rotopax system with the backplate from KOR. Still have to install the tire carrier and Warn Zeon 8.

Lift, wheels and tires in the future...Click image for larger version

That's a really great setup for the air tank. Think I'll steel it. LoL

Got under the jeep and noticed the lower control arms in rear were bent from the last run...

So I've got 2 sets of stockers and not ready to 3/4 link the jeep till I do the d60 14 bolt so beefing up a set was the perfect plan for the problem....I might make a set of arms with metalcloak joints to pass the time till I link but these are now stout and can be hammered Into stuff.

Took a piece of 120 wall 1.5 Dom and cut it length wise. Took another set of rear lowers cleaned em up and overlayed it welded it up and good to go play in the rocks....

I've got a very similar air set up. Works great! Same pump and tank.

Really nice work! Did you rotate the head of the compressor?
