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?

The factory bolts are fully threaded and are not a perfect fit for the trac bars and CA's. They allow for play under stress and this is a cause of death wobble and issues when the bolts wallow out the holes. Swapping the hardware with shouldered bolts that fit the holes better eliminates any issues or fixes the problem that many have had with this.
