Last month as we took a peek at Chrysler SRT’s answer for the high-performance, sport-utility market, we realized that what Jeep and the SRT division were trying to accomplish was nothing short of the construction of a true door-slammer. Jeep’s SRT8 Grand Cherokee has proven to be a HEMI-powered, sport-utility wagon that’s not big on cosmetic upgrades, but what it lacks in looks it exceedingly makes up for in the muscle department.
No matter what purposes you’re trying to fulfill with your tricked-out Jeep, Mopar proposes to offer packages ranging from the Trailhawk Concept, based on the 2014, EcoDiesel V6 version of the Grand Cherokee, down to the “Flattop” Wrangler that’s been customized with aftermarket bumpers, “Metallic Sandstone” paint, 37-inch offroad tires and a Warn Zeon winch.
All of these concept packages, centered around Chrysler’s SUV lineup, will be on display at the current Easter Jeep Safari in Moab, Utah, a venue that promises to be a utopia for any off-road enthusiast. The Easter Jeep run also offers participants the chance to hone their off-roading skills, and the event continues till this Sunday at Moab’s Spanish Trail Arena.
Other exterior modifications that are exclusive to Mopar’s custom Jeep lineup include “Stinger” bumpers, LED lamps, rock rails, canvas soft tops, custom seats, trailside winch kits and swing-away, rear tire carriers, just to name a few.
It’s a lengthy list of modifications for the off-road buff who desires a balance between good looks and functionality, and if you’re interested in tricking-out your Jeep, then Mopar and the Easter Jeep Safari are venues that you need to research further!
