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.

I think my write up was moved the "write-up's" section...makes sense. But here's the pic of the final product! I didn't have any of the materials, so I had to buy them. It cost me a whopping $48. It's enclosed on the top & behind the seats. You have to open the lift gate to get into it.

With the rear seats folded down:





With the rear seats up:

I have to say that's mightly impressive. Thanks for sharing. I sure one could sub in other materials instead of the wood, but with wood it's a little simpler to work with.

I have had a version of this on my mind since I bought my Unlimited. I do not have the metal working skills, but I think a metal version of this with a lid that opens like a tonneau would be awesome. The portion facing the seat could be metal mesh and if you could unbolt the top and slide the mesh out... you lose no cargo capacity. Pretty awesome job, man! Thanks for sharing. It is nice to know I was not the only one thinking of this.

Can we get some more pics??? Please!
