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?

One and three quarters of an inch doesn't seem like much, but I like the looks much better than stock.
Do you have pictures? What brand are your coil spacers??

That's good to hear Trey. How long did it take you to install it? Any thing I should watch out for?

It took me 3-4 hours but I definitely was not working quickly and I took some breaks. The thing that hung me up was grinding the tailgate brackets as you'll see in the instructions but other than that, just make sure that you line up the tailgate and keep everything level. The instructions are pretty good but I had a write up somewhere but the pics didn't load. If you have any other questions feel free to PM me!

Installed my lift the other day. 1.50 daystar spacers in front and .75 in the rear. Plus a 1" BL.

Love mine, but I'm often dealing with below 0 temps, sometimes -20s!

What kind did you go with? That is one thing I wish I would have gotten for mine, especially this winter. How hard was the install?

Got the front doors off for just a little while today for the first time! And did a little lens tinting...
