What Have You Done to Your Renegade Today?

Where'd you get those from?

 

Update: Finished the budget upgrades on the outside:

Crossbars $63
Basket $89
Draw-Tite hitch $110
Bike Rack $133

I'm still debating about mud flaps. I would likely go with the WeatherTech flaps if I did it.

Other than that, I have a Jeep OEM cargo mat on order for the inside.

 

Opus you have probably stated this before so I apologize for asking again, but where did you get your crossbars and basket?

 

I ordered both via Amazon.

The bars: 50" Carbon Steel Roof Rack Cargo Load Bars https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0052XTSS0/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_tai_KHgwxb9QGP9S6

The basket: Highland 1041900 U-Venture Steel Rooftop Cargo Basket https://www.amazon.com/dp/B007GMHTQ8/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_tai_vIgwxb9FGGSW7

 

Thanks Opus!! They look awesome on your Renny!

 

Installed my blowoff valve plate today. It brought out my inner 5 year old.

 

This Weekends Projects.

 

Made New head gear for the hawk.

 

Installed my crossbars. Like the look not crazy about the wind noise. Will see how it goes once I actually put something up there.

 

Opus have you taken trip with basket in place, how did it do, any bad wind noise or troubles? Sure like the combo

 

No long trips, but it's been on the highway and around town. With MySky open I don't notice anything beyond the ambient wind noise. Closed up, I'll hear wind occasionally, but nothing I would call a problem. If it was, I'd try repositioning fore/aft or left/right to see if that helped.

For me, I wanted low profile to make sure I cleared the garage door.

 

Opus- Really like the price and the setup they're on my wish list! Thanks! Getting into the garage is a plus++

 

I found a nearly empty can of plastidip in the garage, just enough to spray the mysky key. Got me thinking about the badges though. I think the contrast between glacier metallic and black would be very nice.

 

I felt the same way about the chrome and red badges...

 

Couldn't find a good roadside kit that I liked, so I pieced together my own. Not the cheapest way to do it, but it has what I want, and nothing I don't.

Folding shovel
Tow rope (20,000 lbs)
Portable compressor
Jumper cables
A towel to keep mud and sweat off the seat when I need it: Seat Armour Universal Fit Jeep Towel-2-Go Seat Protector - Red https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00YTZITPA/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_tai_zMRAxbJW8PXG8

Yeah, yeah... I know. It's just a beach towel with a grommet on it. But dammit, I like it.

 

New Update for hill climb and remove delay on accel shift
I noticed the shift when accelerating, but I also noticed as I ease off because I reached the speed limit it shifted hard to next gear. I'm sure it will help some, but I'm not sure if this takes care of my problem I have had...

 

Plastidipped the grill. Makes it look much better.

 

Installed the new large rhino basket. Looks great.

 

Thought about installing my cargo basket but will do it tomorrow.

 

Would like to see some more pics of your install. Have been looking at this for a few weeks now. This might put me over the edge.
