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?

The past three days changed gears to 4.88s. Along with Riddler dif covers front and rear. And I had to replace rear axle seal along with the bearing. Didnt like it but it was a good learning expirence for me.

Well I am slowly starting to make my Jeep more awesome. I got the CB installed and put in my JKS sway bar disconnect. Sway bar disconnect was a very easy install. Paid 5 dollars to lift it up and borrow a air gun at the hobby shop and 40 min late i was done. Hitting the trail tomorrow to see how well they work.

Now if only my friggin rock rails I ordered in DEC would come in.

Installed front solid diff cover (Riddler). Relocated EVAP. I'll post pics in that thread. I moved it WAY over away from the exhaust. I also didn't straighten the bracket out at all. instead, I bolted it to the two different levels of floor pan that happen to be a perfect match to the bracket stock. This way I can always put the EVAP back should I need to for warranty purposes. Of course, i'd need new hoses. Anyway, it's WAY late so I'll start it up tomorrow and hope I don't get a CEL. Oh, and NO ONE had 5/8" fuel line so I went with heater hose. I'll check the Marine shops when they open and just replace it then. But the lines are well away from the exhaust and I didn't even use any fancy elbows!

g'nite Gracey.

Default JK to the rescue!

This week we got lots and lots of rain here in Central Texas. As I was on the highway a little red S10 pick up slid off the road and went about 25 ft off onto the right side grass...well mostly mud. So I got my chance to use my XRC-8 winch. He stood on the gas trying to get out and just burried it up to the frame. I hooked him up and pulled with the winch tilll I had reeled him in as far as I could, the JK never budged a bit. Then I just backed up and dragged him up onto solid ground. This winch is awsome...although it was a light truck he was tuck deep. I just wish I had pics of the recovery.

Awesome looking Jeep Did the S10 offer you a "recovery fee"?
