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.

First time out in the JK pic heavy

Default First time out in the JK pic heavy

So the wife and I and two good friends decided today would be a good day to break in the Jeep.... We were right. As it's my daily driver I pride my self in keeping this thing spotless I wax the frame rails with turtle wax ice once a week... It's a sickness. But today we went wheeling all day had a great time and the only thing we broke is my wife's head on the sound bar when we dropped in a hole during a shallow water crossing. Lesson learned seat belts for all passengers or the jeep don't roll. I was very surprised at the jeeps capabilities even with the dreaded pro comp lift and open diffs. We had a great time and can't wait to go again. No I just gotta spend all day tomorrow washing and waxing... Any one wanna join?

I read on another forum a guy hosed his bell housing out and let it dry and the squeal went away I'm thinking of trying this before I dive into a clutch and bearing replacement any thoughts?

2012 JK, I expect you're still under warranty. Let the dealer replace.
