TRU-LOK® LOCKING

DIFFERENTIALS. Front and rear

electronic-locking dierentials

balance speed between left and

right wheels, maintaining forward

momentum for the ultimate in

traction. An instrument panel-

mounted rocker switch can lock

either the rear or both axles.

(Standard only on Rubicon.®)

TWO-PIECE STRUCTURAL OIL

PAN. A two-piece oil pan provides

a steel lower portion for impact

resistance with an upper aluminum

section for improved weight savings.

ROCK-TRAC® TRANSFER CASE.

A 4:1 low-gear ratio allows Wrangler

Rubicon to crawl at a low speed for

greater control and increases the

amount of torque available at the

wheels. (Standard only on Rubicon.)

HEAVY-DUTY SUSPENSION.

Solid axles with locating arms, coil

springs, track/stabilizer bars, front

steering damper, and tunable

monotube shock absorbers are firm

at low speeds and more relaxed

at higher speeds. (Standard on

Sahara.® A performance suspension

is standard on Rubicon.)

FRONT SWAY BAR DISCONNECT

SYSTEM. Flip a switch and the sway

bar disengages when driving under

18 mph in 4WD-low (4LO) mode.

This allows the front suspension

to travel up to 25 percent farther

on Rubicon than Sport and Sahara

models. (Standard only on Rubicon.)

TORQUE TO TOW. Wrangler

Unlimited can confidently tow

up to 3,500 lb when properly

equipped with the factory-

installed Trailer Tow Group.

ROCK RAILS. Extra-tough body-

mounted rails provide additional

rocker panel protection. (Standard

only on Rubicon.)

BODY-ON-FRAME DESIGN. Built

with a frame that’s fully boxed for

strength, stiness, and durability.

KEEP STEERING ON COURSE.

Wrangler features a steering linkage

and a recirculating-ball steering

gear. Its robust, cross-link geometry

helps provide one of the stiest

possible linkage systems in a solid-

axle platform for steering precision.

DANA® 44 HEAVY-DUTY SOLID

AXLES. Durability comes from

heavy shafts, sti housings, large

pinion bearings, and above-center

pinion mountings for smoother,

quieter operation. (Rear Dana 44

standard on all models. Front Dana

44 standard only on Rubicon.)

BEST-IN-CLASS GROUND

CLEARANCE.

TRANSMISSION with AUTOSTICK.

Gain exceptional eciency and
out-of-the-gate performance. An
aggressive first-gear ratio oers ample
launch power without compromising
eciency. Electronically controlled
engine torque helps you move
smoothly through every gear. The
new AutoStick feature oers driver-

ROCK-TRAC® 4WD SYSTEM.

At the heart of the masterful
capability of Rubicon® beats one
of the world’s foremost four-wheel­drive systems. It delivers extreme
rock-crawling ability, thanks to
the 4:1 low-gear ratio. Rock-Trac’s
low crawl speed makes it easy to
ascend or descend sharp inclines
and to crawl over obstacles.

The Pentastar 3.6L V6 engine with Variable Valve Timing (VVT) delivers the power to
match Wrangler’s legendary brawn. Boasting 285 horsepower with 260 lb-ft of torque,
this ecient powerhouse is cast from lightweight aluminum and sips regular-octane gas.

Trail Rated® Jeep® vehicles

instill confidence to master the

terrain, no matter where you go, and

regardless of weather conditions. They

are tested to rigorous standards in five

performance categories: Articulation,

Traction, Maneuverability, Ground

Clearance, and Water Fording.

(*)

FIVE PERFORMANCE TEST CATEGORIES

are designed to prove every Jeep® 4x4
vehicle’s Trail Rated® capability.

>>

TRACTION. Trail Rated traction helps

you maintain controlled forward motion
on snowy back roads and icy bridges.
You can climb steep sand dunes and
master muddy two-tracks. Others may
fear untamed terrain, but your Trail
Rated Wrangler has the traction within
to master all kinds of topography and
driving conditions.

>>

ARTICULATION. Wrangler’s suspension

systems enhance on- and off-road
performance by maximizing flexibility,
axle articulation, and wheel travel. This
standard indicates that when one or more
wheels are elevated, the Jeep 4x4 system
helps the others stay on the ground
longer to keep you moving.

>>

MANEUVERABILITY. Every

Wrangler is born with the athletic
ability to navigate narrow gaps,
dodge emergency situations, and
avoid cosmetic damage to underbody
sills, thanks to precision steering and
optimized wheelbases.

>>

GROUND CLEARANCE. Head

out knowing that your Trail Rated
Wrangler has optimized approach,
departure, and breakover angles
designed to clear logs, rocks, and
uneven ground. Your undercarriage
is protected, too, with forged skid
plates that cover your vehicle’s most
valuable underbody elements.

>>

WATER FORDING.2 Traverse that

stream with confidence, thanks to additional
electrical and body seals, plus a high air­intake location. Wrangler has the capability
to safely manage in up to 30 inches of
water. Always inspect all waterways before
proceeding, just to make sure there are no
unforeseen pitfalls.

It’s the recognized

standard for off-road

capability. The Trail Rated

fortitude of Jeep Wrangler helps

you navigate the world and its worries.

On the road or on the trail, Wrangler

works to safely get you through

the challenges Mother Nature

sets before you.
