While
Jeep certainly had some new customs on display at this year's
SEMA show, it wasn't afraid to recycle a few that people might have missed from earlier this year. The maker of many beloved off-roaders already displayed the
Jeep Cherokee Dakar,
Maximum Performance Wrangler and Wrangler Mojo at
the 2014 Easter Safari, but they all made it to SEMA for an encore.
Based around the Trailhawk, the Cherokee Dakar (pictured above) imagines an even more off-road-capable version of the crossover. The concept wears a mix of Silver Steel Stain paint with Flame Red graphics and rides on 17-inch wheels wrapped in 33-inch BFGoodrich Mud Terrain tires. To back up the rugged look, the Dakar is fitted with rock rails and skid plates protecting the oil pan, front suspension, fuel tank and other underbody parts. It also sports prototype parts from Jeep Performance Parts, including a lift kit and fender flares.
The Wrangler is one of the paragons of off-roading, and as the name suggests, the Maximum Performance Wrangler concept is meant to be the ultimate example of what it can do. The custom features locking Dana 60 axles front and rear, a 4:1 Rock-Trac transfer case, prototype 4-inch lift kit and 37-inch Mud Terrain tires over beadlock wheels. To stay on the trails well into the night, a bar of LEDs is mounted above the windshield. And finally, the Mopar Blue exterior kind of makes the vehicle look like the world's toughest blueberry.
Last but not least, the Wrangler Mojo offers a bit more compromise between the street and the trails. It has a 2-inch lift kit, Dana 44 locking axles front and rear and a 4:1 Rock-Trac transfer case. Plus, the 3.6-liter V6 has a cold-air intake and new exhaust. Its orange paint certainly grabs attention, and the color is matched with short bumpers and painted flat-top fenders from Jeep Performance. Lighting is aided by prototype LED headlights and fog lights.
Check out the gallery for a look at each of these custom Jeeps again, and read
the official announcement for them, below.
