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?

Are you running a 2 door? It will be very hard to bend a rear 44 unless you are bouncing the entire jeep on rocks or obstacles. 2 doors don't nearly have the weight of a 4 door. You will be fine with the rear 44 on any tire up to a 37. Worst case, you will bend rear axle shafts and flanges, but the rear truss will not prevent that. Put the $$ into your front axle and both front and rear axle shafts. You will be fine.

Yeah I was saying I'm not gonna truss my rear axle. I have a 4 door rubi so 44 front and rear. I'm putting sleeves and c-gussets on my front and I'm not gonna worry about the rear. If I bend that thick housing then I guess I'll have to swap it for a curry
