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?

My boyfriend Plasti Dip Sprayed my antenna & painted the little sphere on top orange . . . "Details, all in the details." he says.

(He already painted the IPF logos on the light guards, too.)

What was your fix ?
Loose front pinion nut. Don't ask how long it took to find that lol. I also had a shimmy between 40-50mph that i have had for 6 months and it was a bad front driver side u-joint. I am glad I got it all fixed.

How did you determine the u-joint was bad?

I didn't know that was causing my shimmy but it made a pop noise every once and a while. I found it by putting my hand on joint while someone else turned the wheel back and forth. I could feel what felt like a little catch in it. The u-joint that was bad was only about 6 months old.

Wasting no time, as soon as my new TeraFlex Long Arm upgrade kit was dilivered, we started the install. Tonight we removed the fuel tank, control arms, and cut off the rear lower control arm brackets. Here are a few pics:
Having the EVO Sliders I had to cut away some to make room for the control arm brackets in the rear:



My good friend at Epic-Addictions opening the shop door so I could pull the JK in:



Up on the rack:



Fuel tank removed, cutting off the brackets:



TERAFLEX LONG ARMS...........



Side by side comparison:



Tomorrow we will be hard at it again. More pics to follow.............................

Default They are never done!
As the JK sits today Check the signature for specs. Picked it up used late September 2011 and been adding stuff since. Cuurently I am still open and when I can put a D44 up front I will gear it and lock it to make the rocks a little easier.

Wheeling with some Guys and Girls from MyJeepRocks.com and Wrecked 4x4.com before the new rock sliders at the place that helped me get the sliders...





Apparently the rocks do not move, Who Knew….



Definitely did some damage to the stock mounting hardware. The passenger side looked about the same.



The gas tank and TC Skids did their job for sure.




Sums up our Fun out at Calico.
