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.

Well if you have to buy a new shock, you might as well get 4... And some 4" lift springs to go with them!

So I wasnt satisfied with breaking just my Jeep and went and busted my collarbone in two places today falling off my motorcycle. Ill start a new thread about that when i get my camera.

Oh. The Jeep drove fine with 3 shocks, it was floaty but that may hve been because i was laying down in back.

ok im done typing. my bones are grinding together....

If I were you, I'd stay in the house for a while. In the bed with soft pillows, plastic forks, and a football helmet. Dude, I hope your JK recovers.

Hah well I got home and had to unload the motorhome fridge and cupboard. Then i spent the next day cleaning the inside of my jeep. Vacuuming and wiping everything down. After driving around the desert without doors for the week it was quite dirty . Then my mother came home from a trip to Arizona and was quite unhappy with me.



You have to understand... this is not an isolated incident. I broke my left collarbone 3 yrs ago. And have since broken both Scaphoids in my hands. All because of falling off my motorcycle.

This break was especially disappointing because....
A) It had been a year since i had been able to ride because of my last broken scaphoid. (It was especially nasty. Required surgery to fix because I ignored it for so long. They took a wedge of bone from my hip and used it to reconstruct the collapsed scaphoid.)
B) I was within 10 ft of camp. I basically slid into camp on my head. I spent the last 4 hours hauling ass across the desert for a poker run and fell in front of a nice audience.


aaaanyway. Im gunna start a thread over in the trails and tales that'll kinda go over my thanksgiving week.

Damn dude, sorry to hear about the collarbone!

If you still need the shock, from experience, the stealership should cover it under warrenty. I broke my left rear and after cleaning any evidence, I brought it and and they hooked me up.
