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?

Busy week...
1. Yukon Premium 5.13 gears installed on my 2013 6-spd manual JKUR. (Go deep or go home! Seriously, only lost 0.5 mpg)
2. Artec D44 Truss installed and painted (front)
3. Artec HD Trackbar Bracket installed and painted (front)
4. Rotated steering stabilizer mount on stock tie rod
5. Trimmed the rear pinch seams that are BEHIND the rear tire well. Stuff test = pass!
6. Replaced ProCal with a Superchips FlashPaq.

How those 5.13s feel? I went 4.88s on my 09 6 speed feels like a tractor (which I like)

They're incredible! I haven't tested them off-road yet, but they really hook up on the street when I get on it! I was also very surprised (and happy) to see that my MPG wasn't changed very much at all, even at the obviously higher RPMs.

I don't regret going this deep in gears, even for a second!

I get 17-17.5 with mine and 35s but I just put along. Good luck on your build!

I'm in the 15 mpg range on 37s, but that might change since I just activated the 87 octane tune on my FlashPaq tonight. We'll see

And thank you!
