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.

Just bought my First JK! Would like to see others w/2.5" lift &35's to see if I like

looking to see anyone running with 2.5" lift or higher up to 4" with 35's. Looking to see whether I like the fit with the 2.5" lift or if I want more room. Please specify type of lift and height so I know what I like. Thanks!

WOW! That is a really clean looking JK. Do you like the skyjacker lift or would you do another if had the chance?

I love it, rides better than stock and looks really good, me and a friend installed in garadge in about 5 hrs, drilling for bump stops and track bar bracket was the most time consuming

Looked at the rustys first, but it seemed to get bad reviews, this lift having front and rear track bars and quick disconnect sway links is more than enough for what I wanted

Ok cool. Now I see skyjacker lifts that say 2.5-3.5" lift. Is that what yours is and did yours come with the Hydro 7000 shocks or something different?

That looks good. Like mine, I see you still have a slight rake to the front end, I put a 1" coil spacer to get that out, especially considering I'm gonna out a new bumper and a winch soon

Thinking about it, where did you get your spacers?
