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?

Anyone know who makes the best third light extension that mounts to rear gate panel instead of tire carrier. Don't want a bunch of loose wire!!

Love the Fuel Trophys, one of my favorite aftermarket wheels.

Replaced the pcv valve, spark plugs and wires. Pcv and plugs weren't much trouble but the wires were a PITA. One bit of advice for anyone tackling this job..unplug all the wires from the plugs and coil pack and pull the wire holder with all wires still attached. You'll most definitely break the holder if not. Once out, its much easier to figure out where to pry to release the wires. You'll also be able to match up new wires to old and replace as an "assembly". I used a couple wraps of electrical tape on the three boots that went around the back of the engine to the coil and made a hook with a coat hanger to pull them through.

Finally got around and installed Rubi shocks and JKU springs 17/58 on my JK. I had 14/56 springs originally. It took me 7 hours with a lunch break. I like the result. I achieved a level stance and stiffer ride which I like. The original suspension felt like jelly. Highly recommend for anyone who's looking for a minimum lift and level stance.

35 12.5 17.. I may have driven them a total of 10 miles but compared to the M/T, it us much quieter. Also, almost no vibration. So 1st impressions are good.

Looks like you are missing some wheel studs?
