2016 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Backcountry For Sale This
2016 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited is a one-owner Backcountry Edition
that has been built out for trail use without losing the content
that made the Backcountry package worth ordering in the first
place. The Backcountry was a 2016-only special edition based on the
Sahara, which brought AEV-designed high-strength steel bumpers
front and rear, rock rails, Rubicon-style 17-inch wheels, and the
Sahara's leather and Alpine audio content. Finished in black over a
black interior with black wheels and badging, this one carries the
factory steel rear bumper and adds a coherent round of armor,
lighting, and suspension work on top of it.Power comes from the
3.6L Pentastar V6, factory rated at 285 horsepower and 260 lb-ft,
paired with the 5-speed automatic and Jeep's Command-Trac two-speed
transfer case. A cold air intake and a Gibson exhaust open up both
ends of the engine, a straightforward pairing that gives the
Pentastar a bit more voice and breathing room without moving the
platform away from daily usability.The build shows up hardest in
the armor and lighting. The factory AEV-type steel rear bumper
stays, while a steel Spyder Industries front bumper carries a Warn
winch, and steel Spyder front fenders replace the factory plastic.
DV8 inner fenders with integrated lighting sit behind them, and
steel rock sliders protect the rockers. Lighting is comprehensive
and brand-consistent: KC headlights, JW Speaker taillights, Rigid
spot and flood lights on the B-pillars, and KC rock lights
underneath. All of the accessory electrical runs through an sPOD
panel mounted above the rearview mirror with custom switches, which
is the right way to do it. One controlled circuit, labeled
switches, no spliced-in relays scattered under the hood.Underneath,
a 2.5-inch lift makes room for 35-inch Nitto Ridge Grapplers on
17-inch Method wheels. The Ridge Grappler is a hybrid all-terrain
and mud-terrain tire, which tracks with how the rest of this Jeep
is set up: capable off-road, still reasonable on the highway.The
Backcountry was a low-volume edition and a good starting point for
exactly this kind of build, since the heavy steel bumpers and
Sahara interior content were already there. This one is for a buyer
who wants a JK Unlimited that has already had the money spent on it
properly, by one owner, with name-brand parts and clean wiring.NFI
