**Episode 862 – Jurassic Park Jeep?**
I'm Tony and welcome to the Jeep Talk Show, the premier show for Jeep enthusiasts and hardcore off-roaders. Whether you're new to the Jeep world or a seasoned Jeeper, we've got you covered with the latest news, tips, and advice to help you get the most out of your Jeep.
On this episode Tony and Larry dig into Jeep's limited-edition Jurassic Park appearance package for the Wrangler and Gladiator, the first factory Warn winch option on the 2024 Rubicon, body armor and paint protection options (including Meek/MEK Magnet and Motobilt-style rocker protection), a practical Gladiator/JL cabin air filter service update, and a must-have LED upgrade for the classic XJ Cherokee. Classic rabbit holes include Jurassic Park movies, Twilight Zone, Iron Man/Jarvis ideas, Bronco competition, Rivian, Cybertruck, and full self-driving thoughts, plus a Nicky G caller bit.
**Key Highlights** - Limited-edition Jurassic Park appearance package (decals + optional transfer-case knob insert) — only 100 numbered sets for 2018–2024 Wrangler / 4xe and 2020–2023 Gladiator - 2024 Wrangler Rubicon factory Warn winch (8,000 lb, synthetic rope, Jeep-specific fairlead) — fitment, capacity concerns with lifts/tires/armor, and why aftermarket may still win for modifiers - Body armor discussion: aluminum corner/rocker protection, Meek Magnet removable trail armor, Motobilt-style integrated rocker/slider systems, gas-tank and underbody skids - Gladiator / JL cabin air filter service — location (behind glovebox), reasons to change (pollen, airflow, blower motor strain), disposable vs. washable options, and real-world intervals - Must-have: full LED side-marker assemblies for 1997–2001 XJ Cherokee (brighter line of light vs. single-bulb swaps) - Reminders for Chick Chat, Patreon goal, newsletter, Discord, and socials
