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.

Go cart engine will be fine, this is not the first jk with 1 ton axles and 40s. I would never put a ford motor in my jeep, but a chevy motor will find its way in there within the next year or two.

Warranty.......we don't need no drinkin warranties. In my experience dealerships try to weasel their way out of warranties if u put anything aftermarket on a vehicle. Atleast that's my experience.

I just read this in my warranty doc:
"...removal of stickers will also void your warranty."
If you re-add a "trail rated" sticker to your 1 ton, then you should be good.
