Jeep Wrangler JK First 5 Mods

PAOLI, Pa. (April 16th, 2019) – In this episode of ExtremeTerrain’s (XT) “Throttle Out” YouTube series, host Merideth Evasew selects her top picks for the first 5 mods you might want to do to your JK Wrangler. With the latest generation JL Wrangler taking a lot of the spotlight, this video shines light on the longest running generation of the Wrangler since the CJ. From Jeep Armor to Jeep Wheels and Tires, Merideth covers it all in this episode of XT’s Throttle Out.

“Since this JK is a daily-driver that sees occasional off-road use, these five mods will work together cohesively to allow for more responsive performance while still remaining comfortable for her daily commute.” –Merideth Evasew

PAOLI, Pa. (Mar 12, 2019) – In this episode of ExtremeTerrain’s (XT) “Throttle Out” YouTube series, Ryan Huck visits Teraflex in West Jordan, Utah to talk all about Jeep Wrangler shocks. From piston size and valving, to materials and real-world testing, Ryan spends some one-on-one time with Teraflex’s Chief Technology Officer, Paul Cox, to discuss the three different shock styles before testing them out for himself in the frozen Utahan wilderness.

Shocks have always been a bit of a magical black box to most people. We know that some shocks are “better” than others but this was a great opportunity to get a first-hand look into why, by seeing how they’re built. Hopefully this video will help people understand what they’re buying when shopping for new shocks! — Ryan Huck

TJ VS JL Wrangler at Rausch Creek Off-Road Park

PAOLI, Pa. (Feb 6, 2019) – In the latest edition of ExtremeTerrain’s (XT) “Throttle Out” YouTube Series, XT host Ryan Huck visits Rausch Creek Off-Road Park in Pine Grove, PA with his new, stock, 2.0L-powered 2018 JL Wrangler 2-door and his trusty, heavily-modified, 1998 TJ Wrangler to give them a proper shake down while comparing how each performs on the trail.

“We knew at the start that the TJ would be able to out-wheel the JL, but I was excited to see what the stock JL could do and I wasn’t disappointed! It was great to have both of my Jeeps out on the trail and it made me look forward to building my JL even more.” – Ryan Huck
