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.

There are many people running OME. RE? not sure if anyone is or not. I know of one person who installed a RE 2.5" on his JKU, it was REALLY REALLY stiff until he put weight on it. after his bumpers etc were on it was much better. So, keep that in mind.

OME is quality. I run teraflex with great results as well.

with my teraflex 2" since adding the sport control arms, the jeep is a whole new animal. It drives better than stock, and it handles wind way better as well. Even 2" of lift throws off everything. Mines back to normal now and running great!

I had, sold my Jeep, a MetalCloak OME 2.5" lift, loved it, great wheel travel and nice ride going down the road. I like MetalCloak because it's easy to upgrade if you choose later.
