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?

Still have to tidy it up.
Looking at all those wires makes my head spin. Did you buy that external fuse box or is that one that you can purchase? Ive heard of a DBOX solution but haven't been successful getting in touch with the manufacturer.

Greased all the fittings that I could access. I'm guessing the control arms really needed it - coz now she runs real quiet over bumps and stuff - no more squeaking.

It might not be much but they're way better looking than PVC or ballcock washers. I have and dig them too :thumbup:

After having my Jeep for 2 1/2 weeks, the dealership finally fixed my bad cylinder head, only to find out that the replacement head is bad as well and now they have to order another one. Probably won't have had my Jeep for a month by the time it's fixed. I'm not a happy camper at this point and I'm going through withdrawal symptoms.

Thanks to everyone for the compliments on the grab handles! I can't take the credit though since my boyfriend made them as a bday present for me. Unfortunately we aren't looking to make any and sell. BUT we did write down all of the cord lengths and took a bunch of pics so I can write up a how-to thread. FYI you can't seen in the pic but they are attached on the top with some d-ring shackles.
