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.

Hate me but, I was ready to do a step by step pic of the install of the CAI and the gas door but , 1st no battery life and the temp got around 38 degrees, so yes I was impatient and didn't do what I intended, but pics tomorrow foshow and I will be more than glad to answer (??'s)...since after reading some of the instructions on both parts, I want to say that they take you the long way , personally the CAI installation took me 45 minutes and the gas door 1/2 hour...but right now that and a quarter gives me a cup of coffe at work without pics to show... so later guys...thanks for the responses...

I haven't done any mods to mine yet but am thinking of the intake first.

Did it make that much of a difference? I have a 6 speed.

Thanks nice looking rig. I have the unlimited but will probably keep it for about 5 years and upgrade to the Rubi!!!

Thanks for the reply, from the CAI I'm hoping to get similar results as with my TL and most of my previous rides and that is increased gas milage and more power when needed.
As is I have noticed that if I want to I don't need to downshift as much but just step on the gas to get the Rubi to move and also taking the rock rails off and installing the steps I must have shaved off a good 50 lbs as the rails are heavier that the steps....

Aren't the rock rails stronger than the steps?
