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.

I wish I had done the measurements on mine to see the actual lift I gained.

If anyone has stock ride height measurements for a 4dr rubi, feel free to pm me

My guess is that he'll keep us hanging till the wheels and tires get put on.

I went with the 5.5 BDS long arm and will be running 35" mudd grapplers or Goodyears on stock rubicon wheels. I wanted 37s but won't be able to regear for a while so 35s should work and actually give more flex. Was in such a hurry to get it to the shop that I completely forgot measurements and before photos. I'll have to find a stock 2dr rubicon and take some measurements. Will keep you posted and at least included after photos.

I did the same. Was too excited to take before and after measurements.

If anyone has measurements on a 2009 Unlimited X 4dr with hard top I'd appreciate it!

Thanks!

Talked to the shop today. Lift is finished, he's got it on the ground and measured/ordered shafts. Tires will be mounted up tomorrow, shafts should be here in 2 days and the wheel spacers along with a superchips are to arrive late Friday. Hope to have it back and post some photos by the weekend. WOOOOHOOOO!!!
