Now available for order through Akins CDJR


On July 14, at the 2021 Chicago Auto Show, the world is going to get a glimpse of what will be the most capable off-road Wrangler ever build by Jeep: the Jeep Wrangler Xtreme Recon. This package can be ordered on both the Wrangler Rubicon 4-door and Wrangler Rubicon 392 models. Production at the Stellantis Toledo Assembly Plant will start in August, 2021. Here’s what the company has to say: 

“For the first time ever, the new Jeep Wrangler Xtreme Recon Package delivers 35-inch tires straight from the factory,” said Jim Morrison, Vice President, Jeep Brand North America. “We have been listening to and watching our customers make this one of the most popular modifications to their Wranglers, and now we will deliver this exciting new package, along with an industry-first 100:1 crawl ratio, off the showroom floor at our Jeep dealerships.”

Why are 35-inch tires such a big deal?

Because tires of that size raise the vehicle height which improves the all-important approach angle, departure angle, ground clearance, and water fording depth. In particular, the Wrangler Xtreme Recon offers these specifications: 

Approach angle – 47.4 degrees
Breakover angle – 26.7 degrees
Departure angle – 40.4 degrees
Ground clearance – 12.9 inches

What else does the Xtreme Recon package offer?

The Jeep Wrangler Xtreme Recon Package includes:
 
LT315/70R17C 35-inch BF Goodrich all-terrain tires
17-inch by 8-inch beadlock-capable wheels
4.56:1 axle ratio
1.5-inch factory suspension lift with tuned shocks 

What is the Crawl Ratio of the Wrangler Rubicon Xtreme Recon?

With a new 4.88:1 axle ratio, the Wrangler Rubicon, when paired with the six-speed manual transmission delivers an industry-leading 100:1 crawl ratio. This will deliver unprecedented wheel torque and control when navigating off-road obstacles. 

Is the Jeep Wave program available with the Xtreme Recon package?

Absolutely, the Jeep Wave Program offers: 

24/7 support via phone or online chat
Three years of preventative maintenance oil changes 
Three years of preventative maintenance tire rotations
Vehicle protection including 24/7 roadside assistance
First-day loaner coverage
VIP access to select Jeep brand events
