Notices
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?

How's the radio reception worse or better? I have read a lot of reviews saying that the reception is worse with the stubbies, especially in small towns.

I really like the look. But I live in Houston. Home to a ton of garage parking. My antenna is 2" taller than my JK and tells me if I'm about to scrape the roof.

I added d-rings and vdp stubby bumper ends.

Added an antenna x short antenna, usually only listen to Satelite radio or my iPod, but the few times I had the regular radio on I noticed no difference in reception.

Jeep 101-if you tell me that I can't do that with my jeep I will prove you wrong lol

Removed the rear bar to fit fridge in... The mounting tabs double as great strap point!

Also hauled 20 bricks and (2) 4x6x12!
