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.

Yes, I am running with a light duty weight distribution hitch. The tongue weight is a little under 300lbs (depending on how you load up the trailer) I suppose the point I was trying to get across was that if Chrysler would rate a 4 Dr jeep with an Auto tranny and 3.73 gearing at 3500 lbs. Which would be the worst combo for towing, but great for fuel mileage. Than I reasoned that because my Jeep had the 4.10s and the 6-speed that it fair out a little better at the upper end of its towing capacity. Maybe there is something wrong with the way I was thinking?

It’s a lot of fun, and the kids love it.

[QUOTE=mjolnir;411017]I've been looking for some sort of camper as well. Tough to find ideas and the trailer threads always seem to fizzle out with only a couple of photo's, SO......

I figured I'd re-post some of the awesome trailers I've seen on the site. Just to get a bunch of them in one place.

I've posted the name of the owner above each photo for credit. If you guys (the ones with trailers or moderators) don't want these up PM me and I'll take em down. Sorry to anyone I missed, I searched as best I could.



JKJase (2 different trailers)




I think this first camper set up is bigger than my house. Wow. Cant even imagine the cost.

I love the silver trailers with the deck... Looks perfect for the kind of camping I do.

Here is mine. For highways and campgrounds only. Works good for a young family of four.

Seabass is your jeep stock, how is it to tow that thing ie what speed and mpg can you maintain. I'm lucky to maintain 70 on highway w/o towing anything. The wife wants to leave the tent behind and get something with hard sides.

Thanks

Do a google search and you will find some cool mods for this trailer, like better axels and bigger tires to take it off-road. Ok quoted the wrong message, search for fleetwood neon.
