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?

Cleaned out the throttle body

Dirty

Also cleaned the air filter, she should be breathing a bit better now




Set up my custom "do it yourself" hard top lift....



Fixed the broken e-brake, the flat spring came off the ridge it was grabbing on to and the cable itself even came out of the track, fixed that all up...

Broken




Fixed






A couple weeks ago I installed the new KC lights, and also brand new stock Rubicon shocks from a fellow Jeeper







Bought some gutter guards from home depot, and after some cutting with the snips I painted them black and mounted them behind the grille

Looks good. Did you use a Procal to calibrate your speedometer? If you have an auto trans that will help with the shift points and give you back some power. You can start off with an aftermarket exhaust like Dynomax, Magnaflow or Flowmaster. Other than that a programmer will help with some extra ponies, but the aftermarket companies haven't found a way to crack the computer....Lastly would be regearing to 4.56 or 4.88...

Thanks for the input
I didn't use the procal cuz mine has a manual tranny. And I'm using the gps on my phone to know the speed difference.
Hopefully I'll save some cash and install a good exhaust system.
