So its been a somewhat slow relaxing day and I thought I would search the web for some aftermarket goodies everyone could put on their Renegade. Just out sharing what I found!! If these have been posted before, my apologies! I would like to state that I am not affiliated with any of these companies...just found them browsing the internet!! Valkyrie Off Road Gear you can google their website, have some interesting gear, from a variety of different light mounts, to skid plates, license plate bracket, the one that truly caught my eye was their Pole Ladder. My only gripes are that one...it comes RAW so that means you will need to spend the extra $$$$ to get it powder coated or whatever your fancy is! Otherwise I think if you are running any kind of roof rack, basket, etc. This may come in handy??? MY second and BIGGEST GRIPE is the fact that I have no way in contacting them to ask questions, etc. Im not a social media kind of person and I have issues when I cannot talk to the people with the products! Next is Globex Performance They don't have a lot going for them in the Renegade Class, however I did find that these LED lights are nicely tucked into the bumper for a pretty clean look! For someone who doesn't want to throw a ton of light bars and offroad lights, this may be a pretty simple solution for extra candlepower! Wilco Offroad I am mentioning them just because of the fact I (personally) dig their spare tire carrier, yes its a bit $$$$$ but the overall build looks to be pretty decant for anyone looking to mount a spare tire on the outside! Again, these are just things that caught my eye while cruising the web! This is just a generic pic off their site! But you get the idea. If your running a tow hitch this mounts directly to it and still gives you the ability to use your hitch! Front Runner Racks I posted earlier on this rack, and received an awesome real world review from AdventureHawk...much thanks!! Im honestly a fan, love the way the rack looks, love the fact that you can pretty much attach just about anything you would ever need...from watersports to cycling, to camping...I mean the list goes on and on...yes they are $$$$ but I think the quality, the modular concept goes a long ways! This is at the top of my list of must haves....unfortunately they are currently out of stock! Probably not my favorite pic, but this is off their site, and Im just posting this for those in search of maybe something different to add to their Renegade! Avid Essentials Probably some of the coolest products coming across the market for the Renegade! From Lifts to bumpers, snorkels...they are truly pushing the extreme with what they are coming up with/fabricating...and lets face it...its only $$$$ Im sure there are a ton more options, ideas being created for the Renegades, these are some of the ones that caught my eye. Hey, I had a few minutes of downtime and just wanted to throw this out there for anyone interested...I know I didn't include "Everyone" when it comes to the companies out there....hey just some afternoon reading material and things to think about! Thanks for looking!
For those of you interested in the Front Runner Slimline II rack, here are some angles not yet covered by some of the images on the web. The only options installed on the rack at the moment are four tie-down eyelets and the rear half expedition rail kit. Please excuse the dirty-ness of the Renny, New England winters have been unkind and are going to get worse tomorrow.
Thats the exact setup I am looking for perfect! Waiting on a reply back from frontrunner on an ETA for the Slimline II! Im thinking a couple different angles for what I might want. Would like to mount a WaterPORT or Road Shower & Awning to the rack. A second option, and all this is just me scribbling ideas on paper as of right now is to go with a roof top tent similar to the Roofnest. However probably wouldn't need the Slimline then...just a couple roof bars.
American Trail Products ATP should be on this list. They make a number of accessories including lift kits and under armor. They claim a 4" lift is coming soon and now they have a roof rack that doesn't require factory roof rails:
Hey thanks for posting, Im still pretty new to the Renegade scene...just checked out their website! Awesome!!
I was going to go all in and buy a bunch of this stuff, but I'm stopping at the Teraflex lift & bigger tires. With its very limited off road capabilities, I'm saving for a 2nd model year Wrangler JT Truck. The Renegade is a cool vehicle for what it is, just needs more power to overcome the BLD or have the AD Lock system the Cherokee has. I think it was done on purpose to get people to move up the Jeep family to a more capable vehicle.
How did we forget about Daystar? They make front winch mounts, bull bars, rock sliders, lift kits and that very unique cam can rear storage solution Rocky Road Outfitters also has the rock sliders and front bumper stuff that look similar to the Daystar products.
