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 Just some offroading with some friends

In this post I'm just going to post a several pics of offroading fun in the past few months to catch up. I'll try to post pics after every trip from now on.

Here are the pics:


Should have went with Nitto Mud Grapplers, these ProComps don't clean for shit...oh well, they'll be changed eventually.


GIBSICON back in the river bottoms having fun as usual..


Here is myself winching out super hickmobile out of a very deep mud hole (you'll see what I mean by super hickmobile in the next picture ) That hole made him to do a custom snorkle which is also very very funny lol


See.....super hickmoble lmao. You can laugh about it, but that things goes through damn near anything and never stops lol


Here is a series of pics of GIBSICON gettin on her across a muddy beach...fun fun






And I made it!


It was a little deep lol




Here is a few pics of a day several jeepers had a few problems. The first one is JT and his CJ5 after he snapped the axel at the wheel in a hole lol. This is where he was stepping out to lock in his wheels cuz he thought he was just stuck lol. Of course he was kinda drunk He drove that jeep out of the trail though on 3 wheels!


Here is Ryan trying to paint his CJ and himself brown country style lol...


After a few problems, we finally made it back to Rafetown beach.. Good times...


Here is a pic of my baby and then my girlfriend standing on the bumper! (If she reads that I'm in trouble lol)


GIBSICON after a fun day of wheelin' before I put on my EVO sliders and skins apparently lol


A black YJ, a black TJ, and a black JK....all we need is a black CJ and the family would be complete!


Here is GIBSICON and my brothers white linex'd covered JK Unlimited. The linex looks awesome.


Here are a few pics of my custom YJ w/ 355 Chevy conversion. I put this thing through hell as you can tell lol







Well guys, that's all for this post. I'll be posting pics from our July 17, 2010 National Multiple Sclerosis Society Mud Run soon.

Yeah, we don't have many rocks here in the flatlands to climb, so we just dive in holes so we can climb out lol. It works, just more clean up afterwards lol

July 17, 2010 National Multiple Sclerosis Society Mud Run

Wheelin' for a good cause!


The MS Mud Run was a great time this year and the Mud Run alone raised over $20,000 which is pretty good for this small area!

Here are a few pics:

First 2 seconds on the trail and he is buried lol


Stock JK Unlimited out to play....








I think I need to readjust my top lights here lol




Since it was like a billion degrees outside we decided to hit party beach for a swim!




Leaving party beach...




That's I all have for this trip. We are going again this coming Saturday if the weather is nice!

Nope, just checked with him...he doesn't have a CJ. Must be a different Adam.
