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 JK and our "new" trailer

Thanks to a local Craigslist ad, and some welding, a lot of sanding, some paint and a bit of TLC...we now enjoy this 1946 Bantam T3C trailer. A post WW2 civilian model of a military jeep trailer. The trailer body tub is 6' long, 48" wide, has a rear drop tailgate and has a ball type hitch. So old only has provision for one rear light...updated to LED unit with new wiring.

We decided to go with white/black to match the JK...often running with a black tarp over the top. Little thing tows behind the JK easily...has been great hauling some roofing supplies and general dump runs...can't wait to use camping and on beach trips!

Very nice, how much did you get it for? Time to throw a roof top tent on there!

Nice! I was going down to Charlotteville last week end and saw a fully restored '44 with a trailer ...I should have stopped to see how much he wanted for it.

Nice job on the trailer! I have one for sale! A Bantam T3 C that is. I also have a M416 trailer. These are perfect for the JK!
