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.

Finally start the mods

Default Finally start the mods

Hi jeepers, I finally start to mod my brand new 2011 JKU sahara with only 8500km.

To start, a basic RC 3.5 Series II, with some 16x8 Procomp 7069 and 315/75R16 Maxxis Bighorn



I think it's a good beginning and it looks clean! Now let's see what is coming next...

Thanx for comments guys.

Yep, first trail will be on saturday morning. I don't think it's gonna be a crazy one since the jeep is almost brand new... I don't want to break something. C-gussets and lca skids install are comming next week!!

Rubi rails and IPF 968/RR windshield mount bracket are in the shed waiting to be installed.

I was wheeling before with an old Cheeroke 85 couple of years ago. Will be first time experiencing the JK in the trail... will try to take some pictures!

Default Rubi rails

Got rubi rails installed on saturday. Trimmed 2" on the rear end of rails to match already trimmed pinch seems to clear 35" tires.

Have been out for the job for 2 years and coming back to house soon. I collected some parts by the time to be installed: IPF 968/wd ligth mounts, PSC D30 front/D44 rear diff covers, EVO c-gussets/front lower ca skids, Synergy high steer kit (flipped), Synergy raised rear trackbar bracket, Synergy ss tie-rod clamp, TF hd ss, TF front lower adj ca, TF hd front/rear adj trackbar, TF hd hinged carrier/adj mount/hi-lift-cb mount.

Also look to extend my axles breather hoses and make the esp killswitch. Just still not sure where to put the switch and which switch to go with. Saw some good ideas here on jk-forum. Still have to search and read more to take a good decision.

Will try to make the installs except for the c-gussets and ca skids. Already instaledl lift kit without any problem. So I should be ok.

Hope to get nice results and build, on an off road improvements.
