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 traded this for this to start a new build on this.

Default I traded this for this to start a new build on this.



I traded my 98 TJ custom tube chassis, cady northstar V8, stak 3 speed, pro rock 60, 14 bolt and so on. for a new 2007 JK. I received the JK and start ordering parts, now im not made of money I sould a few thing to be able to start this build, so here is what is on the way. Bulldog fab front and rear bumpers, 6.5 bds lift, 16/10 champion bead locks, 395-70r-16 mickey MTZ, spiderworks 13/8 spacers, 4340 axles kit’s front and rear, ctm joints, stak 3 speed and tom woods drive shafts.



So who thinks I lost my mind, or made the right move?

that tj is sick, but starting a new project is certainly fun. i'm not gonna go so far as to say you lost your mind, but that tj would've been hard to get rid of!!! good luck, get some pics up when that thing turns into a monster!

It's amazing how with such a simple arrangement of acronyms, fractions and technical terms, you gain instant respect in a well-established community. My hat's off to you and good luck! Don't forget to take pictures of the build.

Did you trade straight for the JK? I can bet that TJ was hard to get rid of. But, maybe you're turning your JK into an all purpose rig, for that I can understand.

It was a straight up deal jeep for jeep. I wanted an all around rig I used my TJ about 8 times last year the rest of the time it sat, also life has changed and a bit so priority’s change I hope the JK turns out, you never know until its done.

I think you made a very smart move. The JK is something you're more likely to use on a daily basis, and it seems you're already on the right foot parts wise. And plus, it's a whole new project, and that's half the fun of a rig. Building it!
