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've had the Rustys for about a year now and I like it. Its an axle back which I'm sure helps when it comes to price which was fine with me. I don't think any exhaust on the JK will yeild any noticable gains in performance. I just wanted a little more bark. Not overly loud, mellows out nicely on the interstate when in 6th gear. You can still hear it but doesnt drone and drive you crazy. Sounds awesome on startup and low rpms, although gets a little "ricey" at higher rpms. Spits and sputters when you let off the gas at times.

As far as quality, its built like a tank...fully welded muffler..looks like you could run it over with no ill effects. The aluminized finish on mine started flaking however which is why I painted it. Should have done this before I installed but was to eager to get it on.

Goes on without a hitch..very simple. Getting the old one off takes far longer than putting the new on. As an added bonus, its much smaller than the factory muffler and sits up higher. A little higher than the top of my hitch.

Thats my mini review..the good and the bad

Put on a shorty LoD winch bumper. Pretty proud of myself since I have little mechanical skills.



My Superwinch talon will be here tomorrow on the big brown truck.

Changed the oil with 5W-30 Royal Purple. 3.6L oil change is 100% easier and cleaner then the 3.8L...

Yup, a lot less mess with the new oil filter location....How many miles did you have before your oil change. Thanks...
