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.

What do you guys think about this trailer?

I also would like to know more, no way does it weigh 3500lbs. Last week towed 1700lb trailer with 800lbs of motorcycle threw Colorado Mountians. With 33 BFG, stock 3.21 gears, and a six speed. Still got 19 mpg

The trailer sat a bit too tall. I would need a gooseneck hitch that would block my tailgate. It was neat, but then I'd have to work out the electrical to get the taillights to work. Plus the guy's daughter listed it too low for his liking and he wasn't going to let it go for less than $375. If it was an M101, I would have gotten it, but this one was just too much...

Here's more pics...

Agreed, since that was a M105, not quite the right model for us. What you say about the M101 is correct - I've had one for over a year now, and it is a perfect match in my opinion.

Picked mine up with the full canvas for around $600. I checked the Clearfield, Utah base for the heck of it, and they don't have anything listed for sale. Hit up the government liquidation site, and keep an eye out.

The orginal photos make it look small. I agree, I wouldn't pull a m105 with my jeep. We have a few we tug around on base with H1s and they get shoved around when they are loaded.

That is a hoss daddy. I don't doubt it weighs a ton and a half. It looks like it has a second stack of leafs - helper springs? It looks like they aren't coupled to the main leafs, so how would they work? Missing connectors or shackles?

Update:

Currently looking at this one... I like it a lot. $200 obo. I have to see how the bed looks though.
