    Hey guys. I’ve recently bought my sport 4x4 and am stoked and love it. Way different from my first Jeep, my 1995 yj

    I just want to do slight mod. I bought the eibach springs and falken wild peak a/t tires 215/65r17. Looking to get the height stance of the Trailhawk.
    Will the Jeep dealer do this install for me?! So I can keep my warranty intact. This is my first new car lol I cannot afford to lose it just yet. Can’t really find a definite answer
    Any advice from y’all would be awesome thanks. Peace *|||||||*

    Welcome to the forum and enjoy your new Renegade. My dealer does modify Wranglers but I have never seen them do a Renegade. I was told that the warranty on the Wranglers was still good because they used Mopar parts, I don't think Mopar makes mods for Renegade. It won't hurt to ask your dealer if the springs would affect your warranty. I would think the dealer would be expensive. Good luck and keep us posted.

    Thanks for the info I’m stoked with my renegade.
    I figure I have to make that call to the dealer soon and find out! Would hate to wait till after warranty to put springs on

    I know that Jeep dealership have installed the Daystar 1.5 inch lift kit. In fact they honored a recall for the 2015 – 2016 Renegade's with the 1.5 inch lift for faulty rear control arm brackets.

    See: (https://autoservicecosts.com/recalls/jeep/renegade/2016)

    I think that it is dependent on the dealership. In most cases, the dealership has to purchase the kit before they will install and honor their work for warranty purposes.

    I would definitely call your local dealership for more information.


    Note: another good place to look for Recalls and TSB's on our Renegades:
