2013 Jeep Wrangler JKU
Finished in the unmistakable one-year-only Commando Green over a black interior, this 2013 Jeep Wrangler JKU is the kind of build that proves itself well beyond appearances. From the supercharged powerplant to the long-travel suspension and upgraded axles, no corners were cut in creating a Jeep that can tackle serious trail use yet still be enjoyed as a comfortable, capable daily driver.
The centerpiece of the build is the 3.6L V6 topped with an Edelbrock E-Force supercharger, giving this JKU the added horsepower and torque that completely changes the personality behind the wheel. Upgraded lifters, rockers, oil pump, oil cooler, and filter housing further support the powerplant, creating a package designed around more than simply bolting on a supercharger.
Underneath, a Teraflex Long Arm Long Travel suspension with Fox 14-inch coilovers and Fox hydraulic bump stops provides serious articulation, while PSC Big Bore XD cylinder-assist steering helps manage the 37-inch Toyo M/Ts. Teraflex Dana 44 front and Artec-braced Dana 44 rear axles feature 5.13 gears, electric lockers, and upgraded axle shafts. Custom-finished KMC Machete Crawl beadlocks complete its commanding stance.
The supporting equipment is equally impressive. Paint-matched Poison Spyder Crusher Flares and a matching Freedom Top complement the Commando Green finish, while Smittybilt XRC bumpers, Rock Slide Engineering electric steps, a Warn 9.5 CTI-S winch, Rigid LED lighting, and an onboard ARB twin air compressor make this Wrangler ready for adventure. Inside, upgraded Alpine and JBL audio add another level of comfort and enjoyment.
What makes this JKU special is how complete the package feels. It has the suspension, gearing, lockers, steering, and recovery equipment for the trail, but it also has the comfort and refinement to drive and enjoy every day. And when you lean into the throttle, that supercharged 3.6L reminds you very quickly that this is far from an ordinary Wrangler.
For the Jeep enthusiast who wants one JKU capable of doing it all, this build checks the boxes. The rare Commando Green finish gets your attention, the hardware keeps you looking, and the Edelbrock-supercharged V6 gives you a reason to get behind the wheel. Whether the day calls for hitting the trail or simply taking the long way home, this Wrangler was built to deliv
