Vendor fitment: 2018-2026 JL Wrangler, JT Gladiator. Armor & steps fitment from the vendor source. Confirm final options and fitment on the vendor page before purchase.

Our Jeep JL & Gladiator Heat Dispersion Hood is constructed from stamped steel, offering added strength and reduced heat. This design provides an increased airflow with its vented layout, and allows engine heat to disperse through those vents. This keeps the engine and compartment temps down while crawling, when airflow can become a problem. This results in all-around increased performance. Our hoods come with an under-hood insulation liner and are prepped with a rust inhibitor. The hood ships ready to be painted, and installed. FEATURES: Made from stamped steel; strong, and lightweight Dual-vented design for maximum air flow Insulated under hood liner included Prepped with a rust.
