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?

All in all if you use the "if its been put together it can be taken apart " mindset it can be done. Just takes time (5hrs for me) and patience. Knowing I saved all that money makes me feel great...and every mod on my Jeep has been done by my own hands.
The key is the hog ring pliers. Without it is almost impossible

Got bored so I ran to lowes and picked up enough stuff for the DIY grill guard inserts. Took about an hour and a half. Dang hands and fingers and sore, but I'm very pleased with how it turned out.
