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.

thanks! theyre going on a 4dr and gonna attach to the frame and i want to try to attach them using the existing 3 holes in the frame and use some good size bolts to hold everything together, that seems like its gonna be the more difficult part of the design

? most of the pics posted havent been welded yet? they were just tacked and i think that you might be reffering to the slag from the cuts with the torch. i will post pics when they are actually welded up and then if you truly think that they will not hold up i will watch the videos. thanks for the tip
