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 The New Look...

Got my new lift, wheels, and tires on today!! The tires are BFG Mts 35x12.5x17. The lift is the full traction 3" econo kit with front adjustable sway bar and 3/4" leveling spacer. I am extremely happy with the lift, it rides great, no wandering, ect. I had originaly planned on adding control arms later on but I am re-considering now that iv fealt how nice it rides as is. If you are happy with the stock ride then youll be happy with this setup. I do need gears tho. :sad:

Ohh almost forgot the wheels are 17" cragar soft 8s (still not sure if I like the look, I might end up going with some AEV wheels later on). Im still waiting on the 5th tire so the 33" is still mounted on the back in these pics. Also I went ahead and ordered the shrockworks front bumper. The LoD is great but I find myself really liking the stubby look. So ...to be continued.

That looks great, but why didnt you go ahead and buy a 5th rim to match all the other ones?

That is just completely SICK...
How dark is the tint on the windows? Did you have them done, or did you buy it like that?

TEV, i love your Jeep.
It is a perfect example of how a Jeep is "built" and not bought. It has gone through alot of changes so far, I am looking forward to seeing where it leads you.

The front windows I had the dealership do before I picked it up, the rear windows are factory. Im thinking the front window is 20% but im not sure

That indeed is one sick looking rig! For some reason yours seems to be much taller than other 2 door's I've seen here with 3" lifts!
Btw, you find anyone to share a fair price for the BFG's?
