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.

Yes I am a poser!

Admitting it is the first step towards recovery.

Oh crap, yes it is two alternators... I must have been dreaming again when I posted the pic. It's a pic of my 06 360hp 650ft lbs LBZ Duramax Diesel that I sold recently... I wish it was under the hood of my JK; I really miss that power plant, and if I was a wealthy man I would find a way to stuff it under the hood of my JK...

Not only do I like to wheel the JK, I like to work on it, however I hate to get my hands greasy. Get enough of that at work. I keep the wifes JK clean. I figure that since I don't like grease on my hands or under the nails, most likely others who might get the opportunity to work on our JK don't either. I believe a clean engine bay says' something, so not only is the engine bay clean, it's also waxed on all the areas that are painted. In addition all plastic parts are sprayed and wiped down with Meguiars trim detailer followed by 303 Protectant. When I take it to the dealers for anything, since some may be hard of hearing, or may not understand what a clean engine bay means, I tell the service rep and mechanic outright. That JK had better be as clean when I pick it up as it is now, and that includes the interior, engine bay and undercarriage. I've been that way with my 94XJ since day one back in April 94, and all the guys at the dealer know that.
IMO, its quicker and much more fun to work on a vehicle that is spotless, rather than to have a bottler of degreaser and 5 pounds of rags on hand just so you can hold your tools.
Caught me off guard on this one, so I don't have any pics right now, and the wife has the JK at work, but I just spent 6 hours on Friday detailing the engine bay, inner fender wells, and backside of the wheels, while the wife was underneath looking for any oil leaks.
I'll get pics up as soon as I can, and from the pics I've seen so far....
You guys better get to work.
