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?

I was try to see how the length is but it sucks and does look like crap, going to shorten them to the state minium which happens to be half way up the axle tube.....

State law regarding mud-flap length? On a passenger vehicle? I've never seen that.

Rearview mirror mod. Who knew, flipping that sucker around 180 degrees would make that much difference in visibility.

when I did it, I didn't see much difference and hated that the night toggle was on top. What I did notice was that when I turned it back, if I moved the mirror upwards, I accomplished the same thing without having it upside down. In other words, it's pushed up towards the roof more.

Serviced manual trans @ 32,000m. It needed it, fluid smelled and looked fairly burnt. Mag on drain looked like a mini chia pet but contaminate level was good.

Shifts mucho betta

Oh and made a real simple 17mm drain plug tool. Took a short 17mm bolt, threaded a 17mm nut all the way to the bolt head and torqued good and tight while offsetting the fastener shoulders; then cut off remaining portion of bolt. Hang it in my box wrench and it works like a champ

I don't think mine could shift much better but what fluid did you go with?

I used the Mopar NV-3500. It's not shifting "better" just smoother. The gear transition seems to take a bit less effort.

Changed out my Rusty's shocks for Rough Country as I punctured the driver rear on a rock at the Jeep Jamboree (Penn's Woods) last weekend. More mods to come from that adventure: rock sliders, suspesion armour, etc...
