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.

Interested to see how you incorperate the wheel speed sensors in the back. I have the same axle in the front of my Jeep.





The front 60 is out of an '03 F-350 SRW. I converted the hubs to accept 8x6.5" wheels instead of the 8x170's. My plan is for a 14 bolt rear end. The front end is fully abs/esp compliant and works flawlessly. I'm just pondering how I'm going to get the rear 14 bolt swap to be abs/esp compliant. I have one idea that I really want to do to accomplish that, but my pocket book might not be happy.

Check out jeep speed shop, they have a jk tone ring that will go on the hub of a 14 bolt. They also make a bracket that holds you sensor. This will make your pocket book happy. I could have gone with a unit bearing on the front 60, but i rather have a hub and spindle and just put new bearings in when i need to. I am not a fan of unit bearings.

Awesome build.. Are the axles you installed the same width as fill width Dynatracs? Looking to replace both axles with full width and was looking at the Dynatracs, but this is a great option as well.

The rear axle is I believe 68.75, and the front is 69.25.
