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?

A special sand they use to balance the tires instead of using weights. The shop doing mine suggested it, supposed to last the life of the tires and wheels. I will report more tomorrow after its done.

Yup, same thing as balancing beads. They are actually sand as well.

Installed an under the hood light that I was shocked did not come with it. Very easy install though but two sets of hands are definitely recommended

Rock krawler HD pro delivered yesterday, had to grind off stock tie rod lock nut, and then I broke the flimsy U-bolt, other than that all good! The RK tie rod should take some serious abuse, kinda like Terminator's femur!

What aftermarket clamp / mount is everyone using with this RK Tie rod??

For these...... Not going to run a spare anymore with the new tires. Very happy.

I'm not sure why you'd give up the spare tire?
