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 She finally got a big brother

I work overseas, and last year in May (2011) when I was home, my wife talked me into buying her a Jeep. I owned a 98 TJ prior to going overseas and absolutely loved it, so of course I caved and bought her what she wanted. She then, of course, talked me into wheels/tires/lift, etc for her new ride. Below is the result...RC 2" BB lift, XD Rockstars in 18s, 33" (equiv) Nitto Dune Grapplers



Then, when I came home in May of 2012, I talked her into me buying one. I bought it and then had to go back overseas shortly thereafter and wasn't able to do anything. Well, I got home last week, and was able to take care of mine. Below is the result...









TF 2.5" coil lift, Bilstein 5100, Level 8 Trackers in 15x8, MT Baja MTZ in 35x12.50x15

We absolutely love them. Hers is just a mall crawler, but they are wearing incredibly well. They have nearly 20000 miles on them and I'd venture to say they have at least half the tread left on them. More likely closer to 2/3 life left. Should be able to get maybe 50000 miles out of them.

"my wife talked me into buying her a Jeep" - I'm sure she had to do a lot of talking.
