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.

Default 2Xs Mountain Edition Build *Ace Sponsored*

I believe its best to start with a little background. This 2010 Mountain Edition was purchased used with 7000 miles on it. I have had it for nearly 2 years, and up until about 3 months ago it was complete stock. The list of items you see below has grown and grown thanks to the Jeep Club (CJKC - Cincinnati JK Club), that tagged my Jeep in a parking lot with a card to check them out. Once they got me, it was time to sit back and see the build progress. As such I seem to have adopted the name 2Xs, as it seems I have quite the list of mods for not hitting the trails yet. But I tend to make every effort to do it right, and not rely on others, other than advice.

So I did my homework, and after extensive work this is how 2Xs sits today. With the help of Ace Engineering and Fab this past week, I think its finally ready to hit the trail hard. Thank you AJ and Adam!

I also have the thank Just-JK as the owner has really gone above and beyond to get me the best pricing possible on a large majority of the items below.

I plan on doing several write ups in the near future on the items below. Thats how I chose what I did, and I believe its one of the best methods of research.

Current Mods Done:
Ace Pro Series Front Bumper w\Bull Bar and Integrated 10" Rigid LED Light
Ace Pro Series Rear Bumper w\Carrier and Dual Integrated 6" Rigid LED Lights
Ace Rock Sliders
Ace 10" Wide Fenders
4.88 Yukon Gearing
18" Ballistic Jester with inserts painted to match.
35" Toyo MTS
3.5" Rough Country Lift (This will be changing to Teraflex)
Teraflex Lower Adjustable Front Control Arms
Teraflex Monster Adjustable Track Bar
aFe MagnumFORCE Intakes Stage-2
Superchips
TRUHID Headlights
Rugged Ridge Aluminion Hood Pins
Poison Spydar Dana 30 Diff Cover
Poison Spydar Dana 44 Diff Cover
Poison Spydar EVAP Cover
XK Rock Crawler 18POD Kit (Amber)
Oracle Halo's (Amber)
sPOD
Aeroforce Guage
Paramount 50" Light Bar
ORO LED License Plate Light
Optima Yellow Top
Engo EPF10000S Winch
Trektop NX
TrekArmor Black\Gray Seat Covers

Up Next on the List
Metalcloak Inner front fender inserts
TeraFlex Big Brake Kit
Teraflex 4" Kit

So without further a do... Here is 2Xs as it went through stages the past few months.

Thanks!

I just added the Factor55 Winch Ring. I have also ordered metal cloak inner fenders to cover up the gap. Those should arrive tomorrow.
