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?

Installed new Stereo head unit w/nav, Bluetooth, etc. Installed rear camera also tied to reverse light but also have a manual switch to turn on whenever i want it on. I think the camera turned out pretty good...out of the way removing or putting spare on and kinda stealthy.

btw...still running stock spare carrier with 35's...i'll have to re-do this when i get new tire carrier (and yes, having the center cap and wheel not mounted up and down really bugs the crap out of me but can't get there with the lug pattern).

Honestly, I was not very impressed with the customer service. That happened not even a week after I ordered another 1000$ of Teraflex parts.....

This week, my Jeep went to Woodstock (Bethel, NY). I took her there. We ate brownies and laid on the grass in the field, not far from the original stage location......we even dug up some dirt (probably still laced with THC) and brought it back with us!!

Well...that sucks, but I'm not really surprised. I am not sure what I would have expected them to do anyway. Mine only has two small marks where the finish came off on the arm side, same as your two spots. I don't have any issues (yet...) with the inside. Maybe I'll just touch it up since that's what they'd tell me to do anyway. Still very satisfied with the carrier otherwise.
