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.

Default Jeep find...

well, I was out messing with the JK trying to figure out how to get the spare off cause I don't have the lug key for it. While looking through it for the key I found this old timer knife.



nice little knife but wish it would have been the key for this damn wheel lock.

Oh, and I got my JK decals on.

Sounds like it'd be pretty easy to lift or have a JK wheel lifted if there are really only 5 patterns. Doesn't that mean that like ~1/5 JK drivers out there has the same pattern as yours?

I don't like hearing that their is only five patterns, but hey, a JK owner would never steal from another JK owner right?

Man, you've got a *tiny* foot! How do you not fall over when trying to stand?

Love the effect in that photo!
