Loving the look of that Trail hawk.  Slap that new ecodiesel in there and it would be sweet.

 Wrangler Mopar Recon packs a 6.4-liter Hemi V8 good for 470 horsepower. All that grunt gets to the ground via a five-speed automatic transmission and a set of a Dana 60 axles frond and rear with 4.10 gears. The Recon also makes use of a 4.5-inch prototype long-arm kit and a set of prototype eight-lug bead lock wheels.

The Wrangler Sand Trooper II (very top) gets its grunt from a 5.7-liter Hemi and puts all 400 pound-feet of torque to the ground via a set of eight-lug portal axles. That hardware allows the Sand Trooper II to run 40-inch tires.

The Wrangler Stitch  builds on the momentum of the Wrangler Pork Chop Concept Wrangler Pork Chop Concept. Engineers once again set out to strike as much weight as possible from the vehicle, and actually managed to trim the curb weight down to 3,000 pounds. That effort has given the machine the same power to weight ratio as the Grand Cherokee SRT. Plenty of carbon fiber, door deletes and a chrome moly roll cage all help trim those pounds, and a set of DanyTrac Pro Rock 44 axles with 4.88 gears and ARB lockers front and rear let this machine scramble over whatever is in its path.

Saw them in person, wow.  All concepts from last year were there also.  Wheeled with one of them.  Base model 2 dr JK with rock trac, and some sweet general tires and other rubicon doo dads.  They were filming steady, hopefully I made the video.  Look for it in a few weeks on Mopar.com.
