Honey, Someone Slammed the Jeep!
But That’s Not All!
But as they say in the classics, that’s not all! Did you really believe that Co-Up would leave the good old Jeep’s drivetrain standard? Nor did we. A Magnusson supercharger and performance exhaust system bless the slammed Gladiator’s Pentastar V6. To up output from 289 to around 430 horses, all of which of course had a knock on effect.
So Co-Up also improved the Jeep’s brake system and re-fettled every other under-car component. From a custom fuel tank re-imagined Rubicon bumpers and those widened wheel arches. The cabin has also come under the Co-Up spell. Bucket seats are lavishly upholstered in toffee leather and the load bay stylishly finished in the same caramel hue.
Will the Slammed Gladiator Steal the Show
The slammed Gladiator was originally supposed to be revealed at last year’s SEMA show . But that was put on ice when the ‘Vegas expo was scaled back to an Internet affair. Fear not — plans are back on track for SEMA’s 2021 return complete with a specialist audience. So that remains is to wait and see if it steals the show…
