"For more than 15 years, American Expedition Vehicles has been on the cutting edge of the 4WD industry, constantly pushing the boundaries of design and innovation. Our goal is simple: to provide the highest quality Jeep Wrangler accessories available anywhere in the world, period. We’re not a wheel company making hundreds of different designs or a suspension company making products for twenty different vehicles. Quite simply, AEV is a Jeep Wrangler & Ram company."

- Dave Harriton, founder of AEV sums up all you need to know.

The AEV Advantage

AEV's parts are not only designed specifically to fit the Wrangler but are also designed to work in concert with each other, both in fit and function, for example, an AEV Wheel is designed to work with an AEV Suspension package and AEV Bumpers, the Snorkel designed to work with the Hood. AEV pride themselves on creating accessories that excel in off-road and overland expedition situations, while never compromising on-road handling, safety or comfort.

AEV strive to bring OE (Original Equipment) level design, engineering and manufacturing to the aftermarket, and in fact, many of their employees once worked at Jeep in various engineering positions. AEV work closely with Jeep on both show cars and special edition versions, like the Call of Duty Wrangler edition that came directly from the factory with their Front and Rear Bumpers and a special version of the stamped steel Hood.

"You might expect this level of professional design, engineering, testing, and manufacturing to result in a premium price, and you‘d be right. AEV is never going to compete on price with mass market brands that are built cheaply in Asia, and that’s okay."

There are plenty of low-cost options out there, but AEV customers recognise that the quality, function, and longevity of our products provide great value, despite the higher initial cost. Many AEV customers have already tried the lower end brands and now realise that they would rather build their Jeep once and enjoy using it rather than working on their Jeep every weekend, fixing or replacing parts.

AEV was founded in Montana where conditions are tough and vehicles need to be dependable, and to this day all AEV parts are conceptualised, designed and tested in Missoula, Montana, USA. However, with the goal of manufacturing the highest quality parts in the automotive industry, there was only one natural fit: Detroit, Michigan - home of the motor vehicle in the USA.

Today, over 90% of AEV's products are made close to Detroit, and AEV is strongly committed to quality American manufacturing. AEV put their hearts into what they do because they believe in the final products, and you will too.
