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 was done to your JK this week?

Default Went Old School

I spent the last week and went old school style, and wet sanded all suspension parts as well as all the pinch seems on both sides and the back, I than removed all the Krawl Works stickers. After that I masked the Jeep and repainted everything Flat Black and Semi Gloss Black and repainted the Poison Spyder Diff plates mango Tango, along with the PSC piston. Jeep looks brand new again, and this was the last project for this year, and now it's time to enjoy Sarge.Click image for larger version

Default What was done

A couple more pictures of the re-refurbed underneath the Jeep. I also took the 50 cent band straps off the shocks and reservoirs and installed the billet Fox Shock clamps. What a difference it made, they are definitely a more solid and look so much better. Used lock-tight for extra added protection.Click image for larger version

Default Paint

I used Mopar spray paint for the Mango Tango and Rustolium flat black and semi gloss sray for the suspension and diff, and brush for touch ups. i used Eastwoods exhaust ceramic paint flat black for the exhaust. I think it came out pretty awesome.

Made a false floor from polyethylene (plastic chopping board material) to mount the fridge slide & fitted a teraflex tailgate tabe with led lights

Aside from installing LED headlights, THIS has been the best bang for the buck install that I have done to date!

Dynatrac Pro Grip's installed. Finally. OMG what a difference!

So easy a caveman (with awesome tools) can do in an afternoon. If you're riding lifted with anything over 33" rubber, these are a no-brainer. Just have a heavy duty aftermarket rear bumper because rear endings may ensue. No really.

Those look great! Are they selling through a vendor here or did you go directly through Dynatrak? Is there really a major difference, I mean night & day? Like the headlights, the factory brakes are..weak. Mine fade a lot and get mushy.
