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?

LRG 106 is the model, they are available in different diameters as expected for the 5 on 5. I have the 18x9-5 on 5 with zero offset and 5" backspace. I'll be using a 1.5" spacer behind them.

That is going to look awesome, only as wide as it needs to be.

Great build, looks like you really do go a bit with the car care products!

I would guestimate that I stock around $2000 in chemicals for car care / detailing. It's a hobby passion. It shows even on my JK, I show up at the trail head looking like I just had a $1200 full correction done. Because I essentially do! I wheel about once a month, the 3 weekends are spent cleaning, buffing, painting, coating, dressing, sealing..... my other passion! I start at the bottom and make the frame, brackets, engine, axles and all look new. Then I go up and get the paint back, then I spend a day or 2 inside. Once you can't tell it's been off road (aside from bent steel under it!).... it's about time to take it back into the rocks and start again!

How much total lift is that:
Suspension = ?
Body = ?

I see you saying 10th Anniversary Rubicon shocks and springs, but then you say after that that there is a 2.5" Rough Country Series II lift. I am asking because I also have a 2 door and I am picking up 37"x13.5 tires this weekend.
You also say (and they look like!) you have 37" tires, then you say a bit lower that you have 295/70/17 tires.
If you have the 295/70/17, you would have approximately a 33.25" tall by 11.6" wide tire.

You have me so confused! Or... am I looking at an out of date signature line and I am confusing it with the upper line sayng what is actually in the photo?

I wanted to here what rear bump extension your running and how dramatic the cutting was on the rear most pinch seam. I'm about to travel down that same road. I hope my Willys looks like yours. That's a big and bad look!
