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.

Great Question
I would have to measure it.

We simply adjust our EVO coil overs system and can lower it for a 35 or raise it for any tire to a 42+

We just got back from a 4x4 Trail Tour in Oregon we did close to 900 miles of wheeling and driving in the state
we average 10-12 mpg with the stock 3.8 engine, 5.38 gears, auto trans, and 42s BFG KM2s
