Looks like Daystar will be making a lift kit for the Renegade. There were no details from the facebook post but they did state that a lift kit and other accessories will be coming in future.

So many, yep... Not worth arguing with though... You gotta drive one, play with one, rough it up a bit, before you realize that - Yup, it's really a Jeep.

And those that are so close-minded to not realize that Jeep can't survive on just the Wrangler are missing out on a very capable, very fun, very rugged little 4x4.

BTW, nice job on your mirrors

Dang that looks sweet... I would never install it (I still can't believe the ground clearance I get for the handling)

Can't wait!

We've been saying "the new Jeep isn't a true Jeep, only the previous Jeep counts as a real Jeep!" since the CJ-7 to Wrangler YJ switch (some would even argue it started with the Willys Overland switch to AMC). Jeep fans are weird like that. I've learned to just ignore those fools. I went through this with my 98 TJ when everyone considered it a yuppie car with no off-road capabilities. Now it is highly regarded as one of the best. Don't even get me started on my 99 XJ - when it came out it was a soccer mom transport that had no business doing anything off-road, now all the diehard off-roaders look up to it.

Aside from the Patriot and Compass which are truly more Dodge engineering and design than Jeep, and to a lesser degree the new Cherokee which is cost prohibitive to add serious suspension mods to, a Jeep is a very capable off-road machine.

Great news is that Daystar stated in their comments on facebook that they are making kits for all the models of the Renegade. As well as other goodies... Cannot wait for some American companies to get their goods on the market!

Nice! Guess I need to start saving some more money so I'm not tempted to dip into my England vacation fund, LOL!

 

[Hypocrite]

Be interesting to see what it does for the Trailhawk. Of course then I'd have to buy new tires again...

 

[Loger]

I have been waiting on my new tires till after I could get a kit. If they can do an inch and then i can add a larger tire and spacers I will be stoked.

 

[Mrsig]

I hope they come up with front tow hooks too.

The pictures make it look like at least 3-4 inches based on comparisons of mirrors and headlights.

According to another forum, it is a 1.5 inch lift, but it looks like what you are saying 3-4 inches.
Shoot even 1.5 on the top of the current Trailhawk would be nice, but that looks really really nice.

I don't think there are too many off road routes in England.
I could be wrong though.

1.5 would fit their typical lifts...maybe they have some bigger tires that make it look bigger. Tires look like some General Grabber a/t or Cooper Discoverer a/t

There are off road routes? I've always used the "Oh lookie, a forest." or "Oh lookie, a rocky area." method.

Oh this would just be me going to England, not the Renegade, LOL!

The lift would be used for the off road trails here in the PNW
