Fred Williams, Tech Editor of Petersen’s 4-Wheel & Off-Road Magazine stopped by Zone’s R&D facilities earlier this week with a brand spankin’ new 2012 Jeep Wrangler JK Rubicon. This rig is being built up for the 2012 Ultimate Adventure and will be featuring some pretty radical modification by the time its finished. Fred’s stop at Zone was to get the Zone prototype long arm suspension installed on the JK and swap the stock tires for a set of 35” Nitto Trail Grapplers. In the end, a Zone 4” prototype longarm lift kit with Zone Nitro shocks and stabilizer were installed along with the Zone spare tire relocation were used along with a set of 35×12.50×17 Nitto Trail Grapplers on stock rims (with 1.25” wheel spacers). While here Fred’s trailer seemed to be sagging, so we fixed it up with a mild lift kit to match the Jeep. Fred’s heading westward making a few more stops along the way in route to Moab, Utah for Easter Jeep Safari April 1-8, 2012. Keep an eye out for this bright orange JK in the pages of Petersen’s 4-Wheel & Off-Road Magazine and follow along with the buildup at 4WOR.com, 4WOR Facebook and Zone Facebook.
