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.

yep over 105 every day.. i just took my top and doors off - i loved the air but i miss rolling doorless and topless.. In Dallas on business or vacation? If you need to know any good hanging spots shoot me a PM.

i hear ya about the sound system - non-infinity stock sound system in the Jeep SUCKS! I put my fav Alpine HU in the first weeek i got the Jeep - also upgraded all the 6.5 to eclipse and put them on an amp along with the subs. I don't want to rattle windows, but i would like to be the vehicle thats used for the tunes while tailgating or out at the lake etc.

Placement of the amps was always my issue. I had my main one in the little cubby hole compartment and it fit perfectly. Problem is, it got hot nd would go into safe/kill mode and shut down till it cooled off. The two amps and capacitor im running now are mounted on the boxitself. not my ideal solution but its what works. I have a tarp packed away in the jeep that i can break out if it looks like it's going to rain.

Had to get a new soft top installed. My original was wearing in 4 spots(had small holes where the top folds back). Lucky for me is was under warranty.. My only concern is that my JK is a 2010 and I already had to replace the top.

Changed out the infinity sub, added a kicker Srt bypassed the amp feed to the sub( so the other speakers still benefit) then added a kicker 250w just for the sub.
Holy smoke balls it hits!
Also dynomat in the box for rattles, and polyfill.
