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?

Yes, the bracket would help to get it recentered, wether or not it would be exact is anyone's guess as the brackets have a fixed length.

what type of bracket are you talking about? axle end or frame end of the trackbar? If it's the frame end one, i would install it. the axle end one, depending on what you have, i would be leary of.

Thanks,

I'll check it out and see which it is. I really didn't even look at it. It is the one that came with the kit, but since I was following the write up, it didn't come into play.

I followed WOL's write up on the BB and didn't use the Track Bar relocation bracket. What would be an advantage/DisAdvantage to not using it?
How long did it take you to install? I'm planning on doing mine this weekend.

It took me longer than others, because I really took it slow. I spent the entire day on Sunday working on it. But it looks great!

Broke the tc linkage. right where the cable attaches to the lever on the tc, *pop* came right off with a broken plastic bushing. Left me in neutral with tc lvr flopping back and forth. Rigged it up, drove to dealer and part is now on order.

Well Katemcy TX was a blast last run of the year, scrubbed off a bit of rubber on my tires. My JK did as well as some of the other jeeps out there, well in most cases much better. I did more recovery for others than I needed TJ's (5) JK's (0). This was only with stock 32 in tires with an OME HD lift kit. What a good run. I'll try and get more pictures together for the event. I didn't take my JK on the water fall if was fun following the stream down to the end. oh yeah what I did to my JK I seem to rearrange the back tail gate a bit.
