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.

What was done to your JK this week?

I really admire the quality of your paint work. I know it's not easy.

Are you referring to the rear of the top? If so there is a bar that goes through a loop in the fabric and then goes under the brackets on each side. It looks just like the other two silver bars, but it doesn't have the plastic pieces on the ends.

Thanks, I really appreciate it. BTW, all my paint work is with a rattle can, but hey, I'm retired, I have plenty of time for color sanding & buffing.

I read a billion years ago to go to Lowes and get 48" of a 1/2" galvanized water pipe and 2 end caps. Slide that in and you're good to go. Personally never did it since what flapping did occur was tolerable for me, but I still kept it saved in my notes on my phone.

Default ACE Touch Up

I have had these ACE Rock Sliders for a few years and have beat the living #$*@ out of them. The great thing is that after wheeling hard, nasty winter road salt, and overall looking like dirt you can hit them with a little rattle can and they look just like new!!

Less than a week old and I finally got the top and doors off of her! It's my first day off since I picked her, and it was far too nice out to not take her out for a cruise
