STORM-12, 2014 Jeep Wrangler Overland 2 Door 2.8 CRD

Suspension

The Storm Jeeps suspension has been uprated to a ARB Old man Emu Sport system with a 2.5” height increase.

While ride height increases are attained with this kit, emphasis is placed on ride control improvements. Further fine tuning is achieved as the springs are precisely matched to a corresponding set of Old Man Emu shock absorbers, delivering a fully integrated system, designed specifically to suit the Jeep. The spring rate has been specifically engineered for the 2 door diesel variant. Extra weight from aftermarket equipment has been accounted for in the spring rate to ensure the suspension is optimum for the Jeep.

The Old Man Emu JK lift uses the Nitrocharger Sport Shock, the most advanced and innovative 4×4 shock absorber on the market. Designed by a dedicated team of OME engineers through an exhaustive vehicle specific development program, Nitrocharger Sport 4×4 shock absorbers deliver the best control, durability and most comfortable ride over all terrain.

An Old Man Emu heavy duty steering stabiliser / damper has also been fitted, with increased compression and extension damping performance. This improved performance will assist in the overall ride and control of the JK Wrangler.

Wheels and Tyres

17” Diameter by 8.5” wide, these offset Pro Comp Rockwell Alloys are designed using State-Of-The-Art Low-Pressure-Casting Technology providing unsurpassed wheel strength. Pro Comp Alloy Wheels combine head turning style, light weight and a durable finish in satin black powder coat.

285/70R17 Cooper ST Maxx tyres are an aggressive all terrain tyre that suit the 2.5” Raised suspension height perfectly.

Fender Flares

The rugged ridge hurricane fender flares give an aggressive off-road look and tyre clearance. The flat fender design was inspired by earlier concepts and specifically the 1941 Willys MA. The double bolt pockets with black stainless fasteners provide a modern twist on the traditional flares.

The standard front bumper was trimmed around the edges and Raptor coated to complement the flat fenders.

Styling and Lights

To add aggressive string, a Monster front grill has been fitted. A front bumper light bar mounts a pair of 6” halogen spot lights.
