Without a doubt, few automotive shows can even come close to the awesome scale and serious cool factor that the SEMA show has every year in Las Vegas, Nevada. More than just a show case of new vehicle models or concept cars that the auto makers have on display, the SEMA show places its focus on the aftermarket specialty equipment industry and all the parts and accessories they’ll be manufacturing for just about every vehicle under the sun and then some. Of course, nothing turns my head the way Jeeps do and boy were there ever a ton of new and hooked up 2007 Jeep JK Wranglers to drool over at this years show.

Among the many Jeep JK Wranglers I saw at SEMA, about seven or eight of them were sitting on Full Traction lifts including ones at the Superior Axle, Bestop, Toyo Tires, Walker Evans, Body Armor and Land Runner displays. Several other manufacturers such as TeraFlex, Skyjacker, Rubicon Express and surprisingly even Rancho had a long arm kit on display and, as always, there were several tricked out Jeep JK Wranglers on display in the MOPAR alley done by Skunkwerks and AEV (American Expedition Vehicles).

Without question, it think it’s safe to say that the Rancho long arm kit with reverse tri-link in the rear was the talk of the show. And, based on the comments that I’ve seen on all the bulletin boards, this was followed closely by the camper top and front bumpers that AEV is making. For me personally, I really loved the stripped down orange Skunkwerks 2-Door JK that was in Mopar Alley. The way it was broken down to the bare necessities gave it a nice retro CJ look that just grabbed me and pulled me in.

Anyway, I don’t think I need to tell you that the Jeep JK Wrangler was the hit of the show for me and likewise, was pretty much the only vehicle I covered while I was there.
