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.

If you don't have any intentions of every upgrading you axle yes it would be worth it. To be able to unlock the hubs and drive home is worth it to me. Solid makes great parts too

I run it on my Stock 44'sfront and rear and I am very happy as well. Plus you don't have to deal with the unitized stock bearings anymore.

I really love the kit,

I pulled alot of strings to be able to take them off my wrecked JK,

the other nice feature about the hubs is the caster, You can set your caster anywhere and not have to worry about driveline vibs on the highway.

I have the first kit out and I had zero problems with it, I would say the kit has about 30,000 miles on it

yes, new rims that are 5x5.5.

Also on the rear you'll need wheel adapters for the axle to go from 5x5 to 5x5.5 for the new rims.

Or you can buy new axle shafts from superior that are 5x5.5
