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.

This one puckered my butthole.

So turning down from a large hill in Turkey Bay, my front passenger tire went way lower than predicted. Sent me looking into the dirt. Look close at the rear. That's a guy hanging on just to balance it for the photo before getting pulled back. This was the after the 'oh s#!t' moment. Nobody was trying to take a pic of it at first, just tryin to stop the roll.

Luck. And a fast on his feet spotter. He was fast to grab the back for balance while I was teetering, to weigh it down till a strap came. This pic really doesn't do it justice.

Haha been there done that! I took a bad line and my buddy was going he got through it (he has 37 and mean droop )
So I started off amf I see him slams his breaks and start trying to back up because he was about to run on top of a burnt car, so I had to slam on my breaks and the same thing happened to me I did pucker! And after he was making fun of me, oh man fun times!

In that situation you want to hit the throttle. Hitting the brakes makes it worse, throwing the rear end up in the air by transferring the weight of the jeep to the front suspension. It is a bit hard to train your brain to hit the throttle instead of the bake but that will come with experience.
