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.

I hope you got momentary. It would suck to hit that switch by accident. I did a similar in-cab control, only I added a winch power ON/OFF switch tied into the IN/OUT so there's little chance of accidentally engaging the winch when I don't want to.

Yeah, it's momentary. I thought about that when I was looking for a switch. The worst that would happen is I bump it and it tightens or loosens just a hair. I only plan to add one other switch to that panel for some windshield mounted lights and I'll put it in the bottom hole.

Added a TeraFlex leveling kit yesterday. While certainly within my skill level to manage, the provided instructions were quite limited and did not take everything into account. Especially in the rear, when lowering the axle, one should loosen the e-brake cables and wheel speed wiring to obtain the clearance needed to remove the springs. My springs also required some compression and strong negotiation to re-install them with the spacers in place. The front was more straight forward. Overall, the process took 3 hours from before pics to after pics and clean up.

lol yeah...

I've been on the fence for which way to go on the steering. Was leaning towards the fox ATI unit but maybe i will check out the red neck hydro unit. What bump stops did you go with? Did you do any limiting straps?
