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.

My new ride! From a 97 TJ to this. What a difference!

Probably feels like you are driving a Cadillac vs your old Jeep. Welcome to the forum... What are your plans for it?

The biggest mod I want is the title for the Jeep but since that is not goin to happen soon I really dont know. I want to wheel it stock so I can really see what works an what doesnt....Im sure a lift, tires, wheels, etc. eventually. Id like to look into grab handles (wierd not having them now) and rock rails to clean up the bottom of the tub. I see you have Tuff Stuff rockrails. How do you like them?

The Tuff Stuff rails are a bargain compared to other brands. They are really sturdy and a simple install, only took about 20 minutes. They are a good step for shorter people and my 2-year old daughter. I want to eventually find some cheap Rubi rails to put on there with them for double the protection.
