The name JERK comes from a mechanical term — jerk is the rate of change of acceleration. In engineering, it’s used to describe how smoothly or abruptly a system moves under load. We chose the name because it reflects how we design our products: controlled, intentional, and built to handle real forces without failure.

At JERK Engineered, we apply that same mindset to everything we build. Our gear is designed to manage movement, weight, and stress in real-world conditions — whether you’re hauling heavy loads or traveling rough roads. The result is van gear that performs smoothly, holds up over time, and does exactly what it’s supposed to do.

Every JERK Engineered product is built with real-world use in mind. From material selection to structural design and load capacity, we engineer our gear to withstand heavy use, rough roads, and long miles. No shortcuts, no gimmicks — just solid engineering you can rely on.

Our products are designed for straightforward, bolt-on installation. We prioritize proper fitment, clear mounting points, and hardware that lines up the way it should. Whether you’re installing it yourself or having it professionally installed, our gear is made to install cleanly without unnecessary modification or guesswork.
