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.

She is more than a Beach Jeep, but most her duties require getting me on sand and water.

I have more in the sand, but not on my phone.

I've never understood this. I've never had to air down tires for normal beach driving, are you guys climbing big soft dunes or something?

I think a lot of beaches people drive on are typically pretty tame. North Padre in Texas, where I go, would not an example of those beaches. It starts our all tame for the first 5 miles, then depending on recent weather, it can go from hard to soft to hard to soup to under water to soup to sugar sand to quick sand to shell to soup to powder to hard. I've discovered that airing down AFTER you are stuck doesn't always save you, .

The lower pressure gives a nicer rider too.

Can't drive on the beaches here so this is as close as I can get


Had to drive over to a park to get this, not the beach, but refer to above!


But this says it all I think
I actually like the fact we cant drive on the beaches here..they are beautiful sugar white...like to keep them that way.

That's a great idea. I need a rack for four bikes and have yet to see a four bike spare rack. I suppose it wouldn't change using a receiver based rack either though.

I'm in Texas. Used to live near matagorda, also spent a lot of time on corpus beaches. Never once have I ever hit anything where I remotely almost got stuck. I cam only assume it's the sand I'm driving on? Dunno, like I said, that concept is lost on my experience. Course, those were in a CJ and then a TJ. Maybe the JK isn't as adept on sand?
