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.

Some homemade... some modified....

These were modified from some rusting rampage rocker guards... the ends were wide and boxed in, so I used a torch to cut them off, then drilled the holes down the sides. Then I made reinforcement plates and grade 8 bolts to mount each side with the three underside stock mounts- and 6 pinch seam mounts... backed the pinch seams with plates on back side to give added strength. Then had them powder coated!

mud flaps... two wing nuts and they come right off, they hang on soem large eye bolts so the have some play in them. It is a ticket in Montana to have morethan 21 inches of tread not covered with a mud flap. So this is the "legal limit" LOL....

This was a mopar bumper... cut 6 inches off each side, drilled it to match up to an AEV front skid, cut off the plastic bumps and the metal cans... it was an e-bay purchase because it had some surface rust.... it is one of a kind now!

I got the rampage bars for 200, the mopar bumper for 200, the aev for 100, the oil pan out of scrap and mud flaps from scrap... so 500 bucks worth of solid add ons... that is what I like about messing with used stuff.

This is what I'm working on right now. I drilled a hole in a cue ball and JB welded half of a M14 non ferrous spark plug adapter in. When it dries I'm going to get my own shift pattern engraved on it. Then I'm going to cut about 3/4 inches off the stick and thread it like a normal shifter.
