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?

I got tired of mine getting mangled up every trip so I stepped up to some trail ready hd 's
So happy with the results and performance!

Nice!!! I miss my "yellow" rings lol .... Those are true beadlock wheels I'm assuming? I've spent so much in mods this year and my trip to Moab I can't afford new wheels yet.... I think when my 37" MTR's are ready to sell I'll try and sell with the wheels too then get new ones(true beadlocks). Also liking the Method Race Wheel beadlocks I do have the Trail Ready wheels on my iPhone in my note section "wants for my jeep" I like them as well.

I personally would have gone for the wood screw mod. To each his own.

Changed all brake pads. The rear ones were also going bad so took the plunge and did all of them with the EBC Yellow Stuff pads.

Since I was motivated also installed the ORW's auxiliary trans-cooler. Cutting the lines and installing the threaded plugs was a PITA but everything seems to be working fine. Summer will tell how this mod works.

Next in line is my HAM radio, antennas, tuner and the special 12VDC filtered feed.

Shouldn't this be in the "Low-cost Free Mods" thread?
