    The GBX MFG Hitch Skid can be used on many vehicles!!

    Protect your rear tire or cargo carrier from damage on the trail.



    Designed to the the impact when dropping off a ledge and deflecting it away from your spare tire to prevent damage.

    Fits in standard 2" hitch and is secured with standard hitch pin.

    3 mounting holes to adjust depth.

    100% made in the USA, laser cut, CNC bent

    Ships bare metal, can finish with bedliner, undercoat or standard spray paint.

    129.99


    Of course no one has a spare tire on the rear of the BU yet. This is still a very cool accessory!! 15992103_10210422849500303_1432833916_o__31963.1484580929.1280.1280.jpg 16009831_10210422853980415_1731173642_o__09972.1484580898.1280.1280.jpg 16010167_10210422853260397_2069407910_o__79979.1484580899.1280.1280.jpg

    Is that a one-piece tailgate panel that holds the lights, CB antenna, and the 2 Rotopax?
    I have been seriously considering the Renegade rear tailgat panel, but if the upcoming Modular tailgate panel will be able to have these Rotopax mounts, I will wait for it instead

    Silentstryder, the photo in question is the rear of a 84-01 Jeep Cherokee (XJ). I got excited too when I saw this pic, but then I looked at the GBX site.
    FWIW, I think there may be a way to run the GBX light rack AND the Daystar CamCan setup, but I think there may be some modifications involved.

    Yeah, I noticed it wasn't a renegade in the picture, but I recall the GBX representative saying that the Modular tailgate panel for the renegade would allow for mounting additional accessories than the regular Renegade tailgate panel.

    I would love to be able to have the modular tailgate panel on my renegade, and fit 2 lights, CB antenna, and 2x Rotopax like in the picture.

    Man those pics just remind me how much I want metal bumpers for my TrailHawk. Looks like nobody will ever come out with them, you want to tackle it Globex?

    I know people have noted that the weight of steel bumpers would be a lot on the Renegades, but even aluminum bumpers reinforced well would be much better (and better looking) than the stock plastic pieces.

    These mounts will not work on the renegade. We do have plans to develop a mount for the renegade in the near future.

    That's what I wanted to hear. Thanks for the reply.

    Now we play the waiting game.

    Well, a man can still dream.


    Wonder what the cost would be to have one fabricated at a local shop if there was a good one in the area? Likely way more than its worth, but would be pretty wicked to have the only one off bumper around.

    I'm sure in the way future you'll see some aftermarket bumpers on the market for the renegade. Cutting will have to be done for sure that's why I'm assuming we have not seen anything on the market yet.

    I hope to see something soon.
