Notices
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?

I love them too but man they are expensive for what they are. Everyone says they are high quality though. I do want some but not at the expense of other mods

That's why they were one of my latter mods but your right the price is a deterrent, I himmed & hawed for ever, but no regrets!

Swapped out to 37's this week and some black xd addicts with a front bumper trim and homemade flat fenders. It was a good week.

Used two 6 inch metal studs ($9.00), Gray indoor/outdoor carpet remnant from Lowes ($12.00), one can loctite spray adhesive ($6.00), hinges and lock ($11.00). The rest I had lying around the shop.

Its big enough to hold a bunch of gear, my soft top, or freedoms tops, and I can lock it.

Wow that looks great. I've been brainstorming on what to do this coming spring when I start taking my tops off. You wouldn't happen to have the demensions of the cuts you had to make do you? If not thats cool, great job thanks for the idea.

The outside dimensions on the box are 42 inches wide and 31 inches deep. I used 6 iinch metal studs to cut down on weight . Along the bottom of the metal studs (where the it meets the contour of the floor) I trimmed the the metal studs so the box would sit flush. After the box was formed I reinforced the the top edge of the box with wood because the metal edge likes to flex. I should have taken pics during the process.
