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.

NEWBIE :) My 07 Green Wrangler X on 38's

Thanks !
This setup for wheeling sucks, later on I'll do something with the suspension to flex around like yo'yo's when time and money comes my way, till then this this will do.

Originally I wanted to roll with 39x16x16 inch Mickey Thompson, stupid me I bought the wrong size, the were for 16.5 inch rims and I had 16 rims... at least there good garage seats

On Oahu, I've seen mostly mud holes and lava rocks. It's fun though, summer all year long.

This is my other wheeler if I feel like taking a blast to the past in the 70's... AKA: the Plantation Wagon

Jeep Vs Toyota...gotta love that hahaha
I like them both! =)

Before: when it was yellow (my dad in the passenger seat shooting a "SHAKA"):


After: In the process of being gray with some mods:

It sucks right now but tolerable, I've only got it into 6th gear once. When I'm on the freeway, I'm usually in 5th gear, 4th up steep hills on the freeway. I def. want my 5.13 but it's still on backorder...for a while now. thought is was gonna be worse...but for now, she can go

Those tires make your spare look like one of those little donut spare tires they put in cars now.

Yup I agree, my spare looks goofy. When I get some cash, I gotta buy me a full size spare and you know what that means...a whole lotta more cash for a heavy duty rear bumper w/tire carrier!!!! the spending never ends...oh well, as long as I'm smiling at the end of the day I'm happy!

Hey Rola76,

I have jeep green too! Love your rig.

What's the story with those simulated rings? Will those work on other wheels? I like the look of those.
