Notices
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 am disappointed. I ended up buying a NEW in Box gen1 on ebay AEV brand not ebay knock off. I was concerned when I started getting conflicting reports. Dave from Northridge is editing his online info to include it will not fit with a Gobi
