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?

Brown Santa dropped of the rear portion of my new rock hard sports cage. Now the dreaded 3 week wait for the front...

Finally got my synergy ball joints installed this mornin. Not an easy job but it's done.. What's up with the seals on these things? The grease just pumps Out of the top of the seal, nothing is there to prevent it

Installed my sun shade under my trektop nx. Looks a bit off since I have he bar curved bar on the front and back of my jku to keep the water from collecting on my softop.. Question, should that shade go under that curved bar or over it? The shade i got is the full one from rugged ridge

Not all necessarily in the past week but a few weeks anyway. Did some light bar bumper work, OME 2.5" shocks and PlastiDip white wheels.

If the sunshade doesn't collect water I would install it under the bows.

If you look at the pictures that GreenJK07 posted they are usually cracked between the first two tubes on the driver side. You can visually inspect, but you have to remove the heat shield which is a PITA!! I know the earlier models 2007 & 2008 are having this issue, but I don't know if 2009-present are having issues. I noticed mine when my MPG's dropped and I opened the hood and heard a weird "hiss". I hope this helps!!

A recall is only issued for a potential or life threatening issue or problem. They will not issue a recall for something like this unfortunately...
