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.

How do you like those duratrac's? Would you buy them again. I plan to use my jeep much like you do. Lots of highway, getting to the spots I want to wheel. Not rocks for me. If I get interested in that Ill buy a CJ or a UTV and tow it.

sounds like your build is well on its way. If space for travellers is your concern you could go with a 1/2 ton military trailer. you can find them in fair shape on Craigslist for $500 ish. then rig it with a topper and a rack and roof top tent and storage containers and you are good to go anywhere in the world.

What about the terra flex shocks. Are they very stiff? IS the 2.5 coil, and TF shocks and duratrak a good combo? Or should I find a different shock. I do not like a real stiff ride. I will probably run 33's

Good question, I just ordered the tf 2.5 coil lift and was debating on 33s or 35s! I mostly do alot of traveling and exploring but I want to do something that would be mildly rock ready!

Heard the tf shocks r very similar to the ride the rubicon shocks offer. PS.... Just picked up a set of PIAA 520 ATPs and windshield brackets for 130.... Was savage for rims and tires but I couldn't pass that deal up. They r 3 months old and in perfect shape!!
