  • Jeep Family Tree

    Jeep Family Tree

    The Jeep brand has a rich, complicated history dating back to the very beginnings of the automobile. The Jeep which we know and love today is based on models built for the U.S. military during World War II. Since then, Jeeps of all shapes and sizes have been welcomed into the family with open arms, from the 2-wheel-drive Fleetvans of the mid-60s to the present day Jeep Wrangler JK.

    The progression of the Jeep line takes many twists and turns through history, a path shaped by war, economic turbulence and tireless passion. The Jeep parts may have changed, but what it means to be a jeeper holds strong today. (more…)

    DynoMax® Race Team Claims 4 of the Top 5 Spots at ULTRA4 MetalCloak Stampede Race

    DynoMax’s Loren Healy, Shannon Campbell, Wayland Campbell & Levi Shirley Finish in Top Five of Ultra4 Title Race; Shawn Rants & Justin Hall Secure One-Two Spots in 4500 Race

    Monroe, MI, May 15, 2015 – Team DynoMax swept four of the top five spots at the ULTRA4 MetalCloak Stampede at Prairie City State Vehicular Recreation Area, Calif., this past weekend. Loren Healy finished first, Shannon Campbell second, Wayland Campbell third and Levi Shirley fifth during the weekend’s main ULTRA4 4400 series race. In the 4500 series race, DynoMax drivers Shawn Rants took first and Justin Hall placed second.

    “The top five drivers faced some intense racing at the MetalCloak Stampede, finishing within seconds of each other rather than within minutes like the other races in the series,” said Chris Gauss, director of performance products. “It was great to see our drivers nearly sweep the podium. It’s going to be an exciting 2015 ULTRA4 season!”

    In true ULTRA4 racing action, Shirley blew his engine during the open practice session and was able to do a complete motor swap with the help of Tilden Motorsports/Pacific Fab. Shirley started the race in the 11th spot, and worked his way to fourth before getting bounced to fifth as his rig started acting up again.

    As “The Official Performance Exhaust of ULTRA4 Racing,” DynoMax performance exhaust has powered the past six King of the Hammers champions across the finish line. The ULTRA4 MetalCloak Stampede features rock obstacles, hairpin turns, high-speed passes and a two-mile course that’s completely visible to attendees. More than 90 teams competed in this past weekend’s events.

    Most of the participating teams are running the brand’s popular Race Bullet muffler. The Race Bullet muffler features a compact, round, straight-through design for maximum exhaust flow and power. The Race Bullet muffler features an aluminized or stainless steel design for longer life, and can flow in any direction. It is ideal for tight clearance installations, is available in as small as 9-in. overall length and is lightweight.
