Earlier today we told you about the way cool Mopar Ram Runner, and here's a photo of it in action today proving it's much more than just a pretty face.

Here's a rear shot of it getting major air.  Yep, the 14 inches of suspension travel work well.

Here's a shot of the Mopar PowerWagon we also mentioned earlier.  This concept vehicle is simply amazing and a lot of fun to drive.

 

 

As we said, Mopar trotted out a slew of rigs today.  Here's some of what hit the sand.

jeep nukizer 715

Jeep Nukizer 715:  IS THIS COOL OR WHAT?  This all-purpose truck pays homage to the military-only Kaiser M715.  It began life as a military-issue Jeep J8 four-door but was converted to the rig you see here by adding an AEV Brute pickup box for a TJ.  Some of the Nukizer's features include a 124-inch wheelbase, carbon fiber front clip, Bestop soft top, 2.8L turbodiesel I-4 diesel engine, Atlas II transfer case, Dynatrac ProRock 44 front axle, Dynatrac ProRock 60 rear axle, ARB Air Lockers, 5.38 gears, and 38-inch BFG M-Ts on Hutchinson beadlock wheels.

mopar immortal

Mopar ImMortal:  It's a Wrangler with military-grade portal axle ends that are engineered to mate to Mopar's Pro Rock and Power Wagon performance axles.  These portal ends create five inches of lift and contain a 1.5 :1 gear reduction.  Combined with the 4:1 transfer case, the ImMortal has a whopping 100:1 crawl ratio.  Other mods include a 5.7L Hemi engine, two-inch lift kit, Mopar Performance body armor, Mopar AEV heat-reduction hood, hydraulic steering-assist, and 42-inch Goodyear MT/R tires.

jeep wrangler j7

Jeep Wrangler J7 Stripper:  Don't like a bunch of frou-frou gizmos on your Jeep?  Well, this should elate you.  It's a Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon that was designed to have the basic appeal of military-issue vehicles.  There's no carpet, fog lamps, alloy wheels, or stereo.  It does have front and rear steel bumpers, "helicopter hooks," heavy-duty tailgate, and steel wheels.  It has a two-inch Mopar suspension lift and 35-inch Mickey Thompson tires. 

jeep wrangler trail boss

Jeep Wrangler Trail Boss:  This Wrangler was designed to showcase Mopar's off-road products in the brand's trail catalog.  It has a half-door kit, sun bonnet, AEV bumpers, Warn 9.5ti winch, three-inch lift, Hutchinson beadlock wheels, Katzkin leather seat trim kit, slush mats, Kicker audio system, and 35-inch Mickey Thompson tires.   

the general

The General:  Set up for rockcrawling, it has a custom 4.5-inch Mopar lift kit, flat fender kit, Hutchinson beadlock wheels, new bumpers, rock rails, and Mopar half-door kit.

mopar xj stroker


Mopar XJ Stroker:  It's a '01 Cherokee wtih Mopar's 4.7L I-6 Stroker engine, Mopar XJ tube doors, heavy-duty rear bumpers, and custom rock rails among other things.

jeep patriot extreme

Jeep Patriot Extreme:  Finally, there was this Patriot.  It has a two-inch Rocky Road Outfitters lift, Jeep TJ "Moab" 16-inch wheels, BFG KM2 tires, custom rock rails, Mopar heavy-duty slush mats, Kicker audio system, and a roof-mounted snowboard carrier.   

We'll have a full story on these and all of the vehicles Mopar brought to Moab in a upcoming issue of Four Wheeler, so stay tuned!
