American Expedition Vehicles

American Expedition Vehicles

Since 1997, American Expedition Vehicles has been on the cutting edge of the 4WD industry, constantly pushing the boundaries of design and innovation. Our goal is simple: to provide the highest quality Jeep Wrangler and Ram accessories available anywhere in the world, period. We’re not a wheel company making hundreds of different designs or a suspension company making products for twenty different vehicles. Quite simply, AEV is a company focused on Jeep Wranglers and Ram Trucks. AEV was founded in Montana where conditions are tough and vehicles need to be dependable, and to this day all AEV parts are conceptualized, designed and tested in Missoula, MT. However, with the goal of manufacturing the highest quality parts in the automotive industry, there was only one natural fit: Detroit, MI. In 2006, AEV expanded into Detroit, and established an office, vehicle build facility and warehouse there. Today, over 90% of our products are made within 200 miles of Detroit, and AEV is strongly committed to quality American manufacturing. We put our hearts into what we do because we believe in the final products, and we think you will too.www.aev-conversions.com

deflects air down into the air box but keeps water out really such a cool product and it like case says it doesn't feel like a traditional Wrangler just by changing the engine they have completely transformed the whole character of the car to a very capable yet now familiar entity into an absolute machine gun of a product it is unreal what this thing can do on and off road

well they started at like 90. well that was a little bit of an extreme case but yeah i mean officially this starts at 68 but when we bought this thing they weren't building the soft tops yet so we had to get the hard top that that added some cost to it so about 74 i think was the sticker on it
