Moab Easter Jeep Safari 2008 Jeep Display
I apologize for not getting these posted while we were still up in Moab. Unfortunately, we suffered a break on our JK while running Metal Masher and spent the rest of our trip working on our Jeep so that we could drive it home. Anyway, here are a few pics that we took over at the Jeep display in town. I should note that there were other JK's there including a very sweet looking black 2-door that was stretched (I'm pretty sure it's been posted here before) as well as an olive drab J8 which is posted in the Vendor Show Gallery.
Sunburst Orange Jeep JK Wrangler Rubicon Unlimited with Mopar 4.5" Long Arm Kit, PS wheels and ostrich leather seats....
Bumper Display....
Dana 60 Axle Display (Yes, this is made by Dynatrac)...
Yellow JK from SEMA on display...
Awesome 3.0L CRD that I so want in my JK....
Jeep JK Wrangler 'Ultimate' from SEMA...
MOPAR Long Arm Kit display from SEMA (sorry folks, I asked and there is no warranty on this kit other than what the dealer who installed it will cover)...
If you would like to see all the photos that we took at the Moab EJS 2008 Display, click on the link below:

LOL!! 
Figured that would be coming. 
I don't have too many pics as there was a lot going on at the time but we do have video of the breakage. Basically, I was tring to climb up a very tall and steep inverted rock ledge and blew out my rear drive shaft. Specifically, the output shaft exploded and damaged the double cardin to the point of no return. Getting back off the trail in 2WD put so much strain on my front axle that my tie-rod ended up bending FOWARD. It was the craziest thing and the bend was significant enough to change my toe-in by as much as 3". Considering factory is closer to 1/16", you can imagine how visibly off it was.
Yes, they are and a great improvement over the first gen version MOPAR had.

How about that....Mopar decided to copy what some of us had done to our mopar bumpers. I should get some royalty money for that!
Of course, I don't even have this bumper anymore.
