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 heard those are lockable somehow, do you see any way that a padlock or something could be used on them?

There is not much room to get a lock on them. I tried to Google this and see if someone else has accomplished this.

Just installed the Teraflex big rotor front brake kit. It was super easy to install and I can tell a difference in stopping power. Now of course my pads were pretty worn and the new set of Hawk pads has a lot to do with it. They look pretty cool also, however, really make the rear rotors look small. If/when Teraflex comes out with same kit for the rear, I'll be the first to buy.

Just added Rubicon Rails this weekend, planning to add Ace sliders later. Why did you remove yours?

After only one year the powder coating is flaking off and they have surface rust underneath. Not happy with that, but they are inexpensive and very sturdy.

I would bed-line them before you put them on. I plan to remove the powder coating, sand where needed and coat them with bed liner.

I've talked to others who have had the same problem with Ace sliders.

Took it into the dealer for the trans cooler line recall and finally, after 7 months and now being almost 20k miles oit warranty, they told me that the engineers have come up with a possible fix for my massive engine noise at start up I have when its under 32 degrees.....new thermostat and coolant flush costing 330 bucks. ... even though it was diagnosed fully under warranty. Yeah total bullcrap!
