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?

Rear upper and lower adjustable control arms. It moved my axle back about 1 1/4 inches. Now it centers up in the wheel well again. Not to mention they are much beefier and more flexible than stock.

Well I finished the steering!
I was able to get my guys at Maximum Elevation in Paris TX to help me out with this one!
Thanks Collin, Jay & James!!!

If you ever need any help and you are in NTX go see Maximum Elevation or if your in Moab This week they are there as well.
// Maximum Elevation

Due to the Drag link being a RE Link and not stock we had to do a flip from the under mount to over mount on the knuckle that gave the arm plenty of room to be able to mount the passenger side portion of the RC dual steering stabilizer as you can see in picture 1
Then we changed side on the outer mounting tabs on the stabilizer kit and that pushed the shocks out just enough to give us plenty of room for the track bar. Which means no more caved in stabilizer shocks "that's a good thing!"

Installed the OR-Fab can carrier. I still need to shave the passenger tail light guard in the morning but that's all that's left. Very impressed with this thing so far.

Yep, this is what I used. I found it a lot easier to use 4" zip ties and feed them through the mounts that u put on the back of the Jeep grill. After you feed them through, you can lay the metal grill over them and use needle nosed pliers to grab the zip ties. There are probably a million ways to do it, but this was pretty easy for me.
