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?

Not that bad but you see the rpm difference of about 200. I have a 2012 6 spd manual and cruise 45 mph in fourth instead of fifth. Plus I'm playing with the clutch more starting in first gear. Gear change in a couple of months will fix but for now I can't complain. Keeping the trail grapplers since they are bad ass tires in case I want to go back to them and use the duratracs for winter.

Biggest issue I've had is crawling. I'm swapping to 5.13's to get a little more torque in the low end. I was used to my TJ so swapping to the 3.8 was bad but getting 35's made it worse. Again I'm mostly talking about rock crawling, highway it's not too bad.

I say go for it.
Sounds like we have the same setup. I have a 2010 2 door auto with a 2.5" lift and 3:73 gears lol.
