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?

10,000 X2O arrived today at 5:30, got off work at 6:30, installed by 7:15. I hear people say the freespool was crap in these, when I turned it to freespool it actually shot 15' cable out of the fair lead before I stopped it. Had I let it go it probably would've wrapped itself around the nearest tree. Nice to have a winch as eager to be used as I am to use it!!

if you can read this, my Jeep is broken....

Someone forgot the Locktite. At least it should still be usable.

Been there with my YJ "stuck in the woods" walked to LAP and back with gear/oil socket set. Put 3 bolts back in and drove out. I think I drove it that way for a few weeks.

Decide to take off my A-pillar brackets (for my lights) to repaint them since they were rusty after 8 months. All went well except 1 screw (front of the windshield) that was turning on itself but not coming out. Went to dealership and they told me they have to cut the head of it and figure out how to take it out....in 2 hours.....for 200$!!!!!

I finally did it myself with a drill for 0$......but pain in the butt :(

Don't you just love how roomy these modern vehicles are?
Shit. The jk has so much room compared to other vehicles. I can actually work on everything under the hood myself.
One of the reasons i bought a jeep.

Well maybe in comparison to modern cars, but compared to my '65 Nova and my dad's '47 Dodge Pickup, JK's are very cluttered!
