(from Chrysler Press
Release) Built from the military version of the all new
Jeep Wrangler, the Jeep Wrangler JT showcases just how flexible this
new platform can be. Revealed at the 2007 Easter Jeep Safari in Moab
[Utah], it dominated the steep climbs and descents on the slopes of
the Hells Revenge trail. Its 4x4 capability was established as it
negotiated the slick hot tubs and waterfalls at times, almost
completely vertical to the ground.
Beginning with the new 116-in. wheelbase platform for the Wrangler
Unlimited, the design team managed to create a very nimble,
trail-savvy Jeep with a 5-ft. pickup bed and an easy-to-handle
removable hardtop.
Off-road enhancements include:
-
3-in. suspension
lift provided by Superlift
-
35-in. BF Goodrich
Mud Terrain tires
-
Rear bumper and tire
carrier from Mopar
-
Front bumper from
