    There’s a first time for everything and when it came time for us to test out our newly lifted Jeep Renegade Trailhawk out on the rocks, we decided to do it on one of our favorite trails in Southern California and that would be, Last Chance Canyon. Fortunately for us, our good friends Tony and Stephanie were able to join us in their brand new Jeep JK Wrangler Rubicon Unlimited and Tom and Susan were able to tag along as well in their highly modified JK and with Susan taking the wheel as a first time driver. In this short video, you'll get to see how well everyone did as well as all the fun we had along the way. We hope you enjoy the presentation :cool:



    For those of you who are wanting to know, our red 2015 Jeep Renegade Trailhawk is running a 1.5" Daystar lift and a set of 225/75R16 Cooper Discoverer STT Pro tires mounted on 16" Chevy HHR Wheels and 1.25" wheel spacers to make it all work. Tom and Susan's black 2013 Jeep JK Wrangler Rubicon Unlimited is running an EVO DTD coil over system with long arms and 37" tires. Last but not least, Tony and Stephanie were driving a bone stock anvil 2015 Jeep JK Wrangler Rubicon Unlimited.

    Simply awesome! I thoroughly enjoyed the video. It was really cool to see your Rennegade out wheeling like that. It was also cool that the trail you took it on had the mining history behind it. Thank you for sharing.

    Glad you enjoyed it! The beauty and history in that area is what makes it one of our favorite trails.

    Thank you. We really are happy that you enjoyed it :)

    Very cool. I feel like you should be able to replace your "trail rated" badge in for a "trail tested" badge.

    Glad you liked it. These Renegade really are more impressive than I think a lot of people give it credit for.

    Great video! Did you try anything with those tires on the Renegade before the lift?

    Once again you both have produced a great video! Renny is a great little Jeep way more capable than I expected. Thanks for having us out on such a fun adventure.

    Thanks Steve, we really were surprised at how well it did :)

    LOL!! Nah, the tires are too big to run without a lift.
