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?

Mounted my new AEV rear tire carrier to my MOPAR off-road bumper.
Install took about 5 hours. I had to drill a hole into the aev frame mount so the bolt holes lined up, and had to trim off part of the bottom edge of the bumper with an angle grinder... But all in all, not bad at all! I can do a detailed write-up later... Love the swing out with the tail-gate! Now, just to figure out how/where to mount my cb antenna... The bracket i was using wont fit behind the tailgate swing on the back door.
