The Jeep Xtreme Recon package is a factory-installed upgrade designed to transform the Jeep Wrangler into an even more formidable off-road vehicle, equipping it with high-performance components for conquering extreme trails. It’s essentially a high-performance variant that comes directly from the factory, ready for demanding adventures, providing a robust, trail-ready solution right off the lot.
Key Enhancements of the Xtreme Recon Package
This specialized package significantly boosts the Wrangler's capabilities by integrating several critical modifications that are often sought after in the aftermarket. These enhancements focus on improving ground clearance, traction, and overall durability in challenging terrain, making the vehicle more capable in challenging off-road scenarios.
Core Components Included:
- 35-inch BFGoodrich KO2 All-Terrain Tires: These larger, aggressive tires provide superior grip on various surfaces, from rocks and sand to mud and snow. Their robust construction is ideal for rugged off-road use, and their size also significantly contributes to increased ground clearance.
- Two-inch Lift Kit: This suspension lift raises the vehicle's body, further enhancing ground clearance and allowing for better approach, departure, and breakover angles—critical metrics for traversing obstacles without damaging the vehicle's underside. It also provides the necessary clearance to accommodate the larger 35-inch tires without rubbing during suspension articulation.
- Dana 44 Axles with Electronic Locking Differentials: These are heavy-duty axles built to withstand the stresses of extreme off-roading, offering superior strength and durability compared to standard axles. The electronic locking differentials allow the driver to manually "lock" the front and/or rear axles, ensuring that power is delivered equally to both wheels on an axle. This feature is crucial for maintaining traction in slippery conditions, uneven terrain, or when a wheel loses contact with the ground, preventing it from spinning uselessly.
Why Choose Xtreme Recon?
Opting for the Xtreme Recon package means acquiring a trail-ready vehicle directly from the manufacturer, backed by a factory warranty. This eliminates the need for extensive and potentially costly aftermarket modifications, saving time and ensuring component compatibility, as well as maintaining the vehicle's factory warranty. This package is ideal for enthusiasts who demand maximum off-road performance without compromising on reliability or daily drivability, offering a seamless integration of high-performance parts.
