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?

That sounds about like how my mod.'s go... Start, stop (something else to do), parts, tools, start, stop, etc. Glad I am not the only one

Oh, I also wired my second set of IPF 968's, all i need now are some window frame mounts so I can finish the install.

I spent about 4 hours trying to decide if I want to buy another set of wheels and tires (33"). I am getting close to pulling the trigger, but do I really need three sets of wheels & tires?? I am keeping the original Rubi rims and tires in storage, I run Sahara 18" for commuting, and I want a set of 16" wheels with 33" Goodyear MT/Rs for trail riding...

Installed my rear D44 diff skid, front Solid Axles diff cover, changed fluids, and rotated tires. Now all that left is figure out how to mount my winch

Im using up my rubi origionals on the road and off road, I will get 33 when they are used up. Why do you want to save the origionals they drive ok and off road ok if you drop pressure to between 8 and 10 PSI

I'm keeping the original wheels and tires in new condition so I can turn my Rubi back to stock and looking mint. I'm kind of crazy like that

Trimmed the rear fender flares and trimmed the Rubi rails where they rub the rear tire. Going to need to bondo the rear body in the area where I trimmed the pinch seam. I got a little crazy with my pinch seam trimming.
