Truck U is a show that's all about customizing trucks and making them perform better on and off the road. In season 13, episode 9, titled "Outdoors Jeep," hosts Matt Steele and Bruno Massel take on the challenge of upgrading a Jeep Wrangler to make it better suited for outdoor adventures.

The episode kicks off with Matt and Bruno giving a little background on the project vehicle, a 2018 Jeep Wrangler. They explain that the Jeep's owner is an avid outdoorsman who wants to take it on camping and hunting trips, but feels like it could use some improvements in terms of off-road capability and storage.

The first item on the upgrade list is a suspension system. Matt and Bruno install a set of Eibach coilovers and Fox shocks, which they say will give the Jeep a smoother ride and better handling on rough terrain. They also add new sway bars and control arms to improve stability and articulation.

Next, the hosts turn their attention to the Jeep's wheels and tires. They swap out the stock tires for a set of Nitto Ridge Grapplers, which they say are better suited for off-road use. They also install new 17-inch wheels and a tire carrier mounted on the back of the Jeep.

With the suspension and wheels taken care of, Matt and Bruno move on to the Jeep's interior. They add a custom storage system that includes a drawer for clothes and supplies, as well as a slide-out kitchen for cooking. They also install a refrigerator and a generator to power it all.

Finally, the hosts take the Jeep out for a test drive to see how the new upgrades perform. They take it on a variety of terrains, including rocks, mud, and sand. They note that the suspension system makes a huge difference in how the Jeep handles off-road, and the new tires provide better traction. They also show off the storage system and demonstrate how easy it is to set up camp with all the added features.

Overall, "Outdoors Jeep" showcases the ways in which a Jeep can be upgraded to make it more suitable for outdoor adventures. From the suspension to the storage, Matt and Bruno show viewers how to take a stock vehicle and turn it into a fully equipped off-road machine.
