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.

Dive dive dive!

ID:	617817 Sank until the battery was under water. Glovebox and center console were full of water. TIPM totally submerged, holding gas to the floor to keep 900RPM until it died. Got yanked out pulled out and dried all the fuses, reinstalled the essential ones, started it up and drove home 80km. This was 2013 no TIPM issues so far, except when my key is removed the green lights in the dash illuminate brown horizontal lines when there should be nothing. Drove through this same hole earlier the same day with no issues.

there was a dip that took the hood under and then I lifted back out. It was only under a second. The back wheels had not yet reached the dip
