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 used long stainless steel screws. I don't remember the size but I just went to the hardware store with a nut from the stock door hinge.

T&ERun is right. I just bought the welder during a special sale and started practicing. Youtube helps a lot. The hard part is getting everything together and that, for the most part, it's just having the initiative to go and do it.

Cheers!

I'm bout to give them a shot. Might pick up a stick of metal today. Just have to get the tools to my house. I'm going to look into the door hinges that bolt on the stock door so I can make everything sit flush in the frame and you can use the stock nuts to tighten it in and reducing rattling. Depends on how much they cost.

I don't really know. I would assume they might just cause they just sit on the mounts and not a lot of mounts to keep them down. I could be wrong. I haven't started the project yet.

Maybe the OP might have some insight
