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 never seen this and I for sure have the steering clunk. You by chance do/can do a write up on this?

Installed ZXE headlights since I get them at about half price. They're actually pretty bright compared to the stock headlights. I don't know if I'd pay the $60 price tag for them but they're nice for the price I got them for.

honestly theres not much to it. Strap the steering wheel to the pedals with a ratchet strap. Remove the two 13mm bolts COMPLETELY on either end of the intermediate shaft. With a file or a grinder, create a flat spot about 2" from the top u-joint. Drill and tap a hole for the zerk of your choice (I used 1/4"). Pump with grease while extending and compressing the shaft. Install back on the Jeep.

As soon as the weather breaks here in the Midwest this will be on the short list. Thanks!!

Love them! I couldn't be happier with them. Whenever the time comes for new ones I'll be getting these again. I just wish I would've went bigger. 20,000 miles on them with hardly any wear. I've been doing 5 tire rotations every 5,000 miles.

At the dealership - looks like my steering stabilizer went. Ordered a set of clear signals to replace my ambers. Since these are new for 2014, will they fit a 2009? The grills look identical to me...

They have a great looking Granite Metallic Gray Rubicon here!'
