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?

I've ordered a pair of LED 3156/3157 tail light bulbs, so we'll see if they help for day light.

I'm going to redo it, if the new bulbs aren't bright enough.

PS, I did my grill too, and the amber turn signals show right through in the daytime.
This stuff sticks great on headlights! That's surprising because most paint doesn't. You can also buy film. Way easier to take on and off if need be

Yeah I saw this. Tape... come on now. You have to use epoxy or some sort of industrial bond compound. I found something in my closet which pardon my french is fucking insane $13 at amazon plus shipping or you can get it at a tool shop. Cold Weld Compounds - jb weld industro cold weld compound two-5 oz tub - Amazon.com

Also get the bases for the zip ties, theyre little squares that the zip ties go through, they usually have a 3m backing (which imo is not strong enough hence the industro weld)

this should help you, mine has held up against Chicago winds and small rocks flying down i90 at about 85. I will also DM you this info incase you dont find it.

ID:	466566Installed a 12000 lb Badland Winch. Got it on sale from Harbor Freight, $299.99 + 79.99 for the 2 year no questions asked warranty. Fits nice into the Smittybilt xrc bumber. Had a bit of trimming to do on the plastic piece behind the winch but not a big deal.

Ripp SC install. Sorry the pics are blue I figured out afterwards that the whitebalance on the camera was set to fluorescent lighting.
