What Are Mopar Parts?

America was deep in the grip of the Great Depression in 1937, as Americans did everything they could to stretch their hard-earned money. While automobiles were a staple on roadways, they weren’t exactly easy or affordable to maintain, making them impractical for many people. However, Chrysler developed a solution in 1937 when the automaker began marketing products like antifreeze under a new brand known as Mopar.

Mopar Antifreeze launched a new avenue for Chrysler to develop original equipment manufacturer (OEM) parts for its many brands, from Dodge and Plymouth to Ram, Chrysler, and Jeep. Over the years, Mopar became synonymous with vehicles under the Chrysler umbrella and a top choice among drivers who value high-quality parts that maintain the integrity of their cars, trucks, and SUVs.

Jeep parts are plentiful today, with thousands of aftermarket components built by third parties. While these parts are occasionally cheaper, their quality and operability vary. Alternatively, Mopar parts are engineered for your specific model and are the same quality that rolls off Jeep’s production line. Because of this, the investment in a Mopar part is worthwhile because you’re getting a top-quality part built to last and backed by the manufacturer.

Air Intake Systems

Air intake systems are some of the most popular Jeep parts you’ll find because they let you harness more power from the engine. But how does the system work? Your gas-powered Jeep, whether a Wrangler, Gladiator, or Grand Cherokee, relies on fuel and air in the combustion process. The air intake brings this air from outside the Jeep into the engine, where it mixes with the fuel before it's ignited and kickstarts the combustion process. Without the intake system, the engine in your Jeep wouldn't perform as consistently.

Some Jeep owners opt for a Mopar cold air intake to heighten their rig’s performance. Why? The colder the air, the denser it is, which translates to more power. Moreover, a cold air intake system is a straightforward and affordable modification that helps your Jeep breathe better and enhances the legendary powertrain under the hood. In turn, you have the confidence to push your Jeep to its limits because you know cold air is readily available.

Upgraded Bumpers

Have you ever driven a bumper car at an outdoor arcade? If so, you know the bumpers around the car are designed to minimize the force of an impact. While your Jeep is far from a bumper car at an arcade, its bumpers have a similar function and are engineered to absorb the energy from an impact. However, Mopar shows us that bumpers can handle much more with a variety of upgraded options ready for any challenge.

Mopar bumpers run the entire spectrum from streamlined designs to beefier, high-strength options. Smaller, lower-profile bumpers offer a distinct aesthetic and potentially lead to improved fuel economy, but they aren’t ideal if you plan to test your Jeep’s limits off the pavement. Mopar steel bumpers are excellent for these situations because they can withstand more technical terrain and the obstacles that come with it. Additionally, many feature integrated recovery points and are winch-ready, heightening their versatility and giving you all the necessities when answering the call of adventure.

Better Brakes

Think about how often you engage the brakes. From quickly stopping to prevent a collision or lightly engaging the brakes to slow your cruising speed, brakes are essential to your Jeep’s performance. Because of this, routine brake service and inspections are critical to your safety and extending the longevity and performance of your Jeep. But what about replacing the stock brakes with Mopar alternatives?

The stock brakes on any Jeep are reliable and provide good stopping power, but some Jeep owners need more responsive systems that offer enhanced stopping capability. In other cases, extreme elements and driving conditions lead to faster wear and tear that requires earlier brake repair or replacement. Whichever the case, Mopar has the answer with a variety of big brake kits and other upgrades.

Off-road Jeep owners know the importance of their brakes when tackling challenging trails. Think of navigating a steep descent and relying on the brakes to stop your Wrangler from veering off the path and down a cliff. Consider the braking responsiveness necessary to surmount boulders and other obstacles on more technical terrain. Fortunately, Mopar thinks of this, offering everything from individual brake components to performance-oriented setups designed precisely for your Jeep.

Door and Exterior Mirror Components

Jeep offers an open-air experience with models like the Wrangler and Gladiator. The removable roof and doors on these models immerse you in the environment, whether navigating your commute with the wind in your hair or exploring a new trail deep in the woods. This open-air experience often draws people to the Jeep lineup, especially knowing you can customize the doors to meet your needs and bring your vision to life using Mopar Jeep parts.

Depending on the model, removing the doors on your Wrangler might mean the exterior mirrors go with them. Fortunately, Mopar offers a solution with easily mountable mirrors that fit on the frame and provide the same visibility as the standard mirrors. In other cases, you may notice wear and tear on the door components from frequently removing them or want a different door altogether. Mopar has you covered with its selection of Jeep parts.

Mopar’s catalog includes every door-related component, from the door lock cylinders and clips to the nuts, screws, and washers. You can also find weatherstrips and seals or explore different styles of doors that are perfect for cruising. For example, outfitting your Wrangler with a set of Tube Doors ensures you can still enjoy the open-air freedom but adds another layer of protection between you and your surroundings.

Fender Flares

Every vehicle that rolls off the factory floor, whether a Jeep, Chrysler, Dodge, or other brand, has fenders. At first glance, fenders look like a design component, a finishing detail that completes a vehicle's aesthetic. However, fenders have a bigger job to do than simply look nice. They’re engineered to protect your Jeep, other cars, and nearby pedestrians from debris on the road.

Think of the fenders on your Jeep as a shield against debris on the road. As tires make contact with the ground, they’re prone to kick up anything on the street, be it rocks, water, sand, gravel, or other debris. These objects can stick to the tire or get lodged in the tread and, with enough kinetic energy from the tire’s rotation, can go flying into the air. The debris is like flying shrapnel, which poses a threat to pedestrians and other vehicles. Fortunately, fenders are designed to prevent this, with the added perks of being aesthetically pleasing.

Many Jeep owners opt for upgraded fenders that offer more protection, especially when venturing on rugged terrain where gravel, mud, sand, and other debris are prominent. In other cases, your stock fenders may need to be replaced because of a collision or extreme wear and tear. Whatever the situation, genuine Mopar fenders are an excellent option designed to guarantee a perfect fit.

Interior Accessories

Mopar is typically associated with high-quality performance parts, but the Mopar catalog of Jeep parts runs the entire spectrum and offers everything imaginable for your Jeep. For example, you can rely on Mopar for interior accessories that make your Jeep more functional and versatile. Since these components are OEM, you can expect the same quality materials and design Jeep provides on the production line. So, what type of interior accessories can you find in the Mopar catalog?

From air filters to floor mats, seats, security covers, sun protection, and storage components, there’s a Mopar accessory for all your Jeep needs. For example, you can add heavy-duty floor mats to your Wrangler that are built to withstand every rugged adventure or extreme condition. You can also make other changes to your Jeep’s aesthetic, like adding Mopar pedals or upgraded leather upholstery.

Mopar’s lineup of interior accessories also includes more convenience-oriented parts, like interior grab handles or a tailgate table for the perfect place to eat during a weekend camping in the woods with friends. Mopar undoubtedly thinks of everything, even offering a pet partition for your four-legged friends and an extensive lineup of storage and cargo-related components that accommodate all types of gear.

Performance Components

Mopar’s reputation for performance extends to the Jeep lineup, which means Jeep owners have every opportunity to glean more horsepower and capability from their adventure-ready rigs. While updating the air intake system is often the easiest upgrade, it isn’t your only option, as you will see exploring the Mopar catalog and working with our team. Mopar's engine modifications are plentiful and ensure you can improve every aspect of your Jeep's performance, from the engine to the exhaust.

There's everything from performance exhausts and snorkels to upgraded differentials. Depending on the model, you can also find crate engines and performance chips. Whether you feel like swapping out the engine in your Jeep or retuning it to provide more power, these Mopar components promise more horsepower and torque to help you confidently push your Jeep to new heights wherever the road leads.

Suspension Parts

Jeep’s legacy of building rugged adventurers is unquestionable, dating to the 1940s when Jeep answered the American military’s need for a light reconnaissance vehicle to aid in World War II. The Willys-Overland MB set the stage for the modern Wrangler, a legend known for its iconic grille and round headlights just as much as its four-wheel drive capability and prowess on and off the pavement. This brute strength and that of the rest of the Jeep lineup begs the question, “Why mess with the suspension?”

While Jeep vehicles like the Gladiator, Wrangler, and Grand Cherokee are go-anywhere models, there’s always room for improvement among savvy off-roaders and overlanders. Those dedicated to exploring the unknown, regardless of how technical or extreme the terrain, know the value of upgrading their Jeep with a Mopar suspension and components. Adding a lift kit takes a Jeep’s already impressive ground clearance and water-fording capability even higher and gives you the freedom to add beefier all-terrain or mud tires.

Tires and Wheels

Jeep does an exceptional job of outfitting its lineup with modern wheel designs and tires that meet various performance needs, from cruising along at highway speeds to exploring unpaved backroads and muddy terrain. Despite the effectiveness of these stock tires, Jeep owners often find the easiest way to get more out of their Jeeps is to update the tires and wheels. It’s an upgrade that can affect the aesthetic of a Jeep, but it also heightens the vehicle's ability to go anywhere and explore.

Mopar satiates this need with an extensive catalog of wheels, tires, hardware, and accessories for every Jeep in the fleet. These components run the gamut from aluminum and steel wheels to valve stems and lug nuts. You’ll also find wheel lock sets, spare tire covers, center caps, and replacement parts that work with Jeep’s tire pressure monitoring system. Mopar’s tire catalog even includes jack-related parts and accessories, like a scissors jack, a handle extension, a wheel lug wrench, and a storage bag to keep everything together.
