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.

Do you know if they are the JK tooth count (52) or 55 like other rings? Are you planning on using the stock sensors with the aftermarket rings? Just getting some ideas of what is involved for light free upgrade.

The tooth count is 52, it is the tone rings they use on their axles. I am going to use the stock sensors.

I remounted my rear ORI so I can have more up travel and I came very close to rubbing on the driver side tire at full stuff. After I charge my shocks I will have 6.5 inches of up travel and maintain the same height.
Finished up the mounts yesterday.

Boxed in my rear track bar mount

Nice! I'll be mounting 14" kings in mine. I'm gonna go through the tub if I need to for desired ride height. I want to stay outboard of the frame without notching but will go inside frame up through rear floor if I need too.

I've got a build thread going on here and pirate. Have u had a chance to beat on it yet?

Been watching you build on pirate, I have beat on it some. I still have some kinks to work out and I really need to get this thing geared. I want to get some stuff worked out before I gear and lock it because all hell is going to break loose then. Ill probably 4 link the rear over next summer, but the three link does really well so I will see. It will be tough to keep the coilovers out board the frame without notching, but will look forward to your progress.

Yah I was messing with it today and don't think it's possible. Looks like the tire will hit the coilover at full stuff. Im going to mock up my design with some 1" emt conduit and see what happens.
