'15 Jeep Patriot sport.."Time to start a 'Riot"
As mentioned in the What did you buy? thread last month i recently picked this up.
Specs: 2015 Jeep Patriot Sport 2.4 4 cyl (same as the Dodge Avenger it replaced) 6 speed auto trans (Recommended drivetrain in these jeeps) Freedom Drive 1 real time 4wd with 4wd lock for 50/50 power distribution. Standard configuration in normal driving is Fwd with 70/30 distribution when 4wd is needed. As basic as my Chevy C10 in terms of options. Crank windows, AM/FM radio with CD player. Air conditioning. Upgrades already on Jeep at time of purchase: 215/70R16 Motomaster Total Terrain W/T mud and snow tires. (28" diameter. Stock tire size is 205/70R16 which is just a bit over 27") Tinted windows...(need to redo some of it however) Planned upgrades: Rocky Road outfitters (RRO) 2 1/8" Lift kit RRO Stage 1 bumper kit (Adds a grill guard to the front without hurting approach angle at front end.) Alternator from Jeep patriot with Freedom Drive 2 drivetrain (Higher output) McLeod Fabrication Tow Hook kit McLeod Fabrication Rear tow point brace kit with Shackle McLeod Fabrication Pod mounts to install lights near windshield. (Still deciding if i am going single or dual.) ARB surface mount lighter socket to add a second power point in the interior (May end up adding three of these. One switched off of key for phones and two that is full time off of battery. One inside console and one in rear cargo area) Either FD2 metal skid plate or custom bash plate over stock plastic skid. Inverter in rear cargo area (location to be determined) Mopar factory fog lights in bumper (Pic of red Jeep shows what those look like) Since we all like pics...here are a couple from when i first got it. Been too cold to do a proper photo shoot of it yet. Here are some pics of the planned parts: Mcleod Fabrication Dual pod mount (Single is the same but this was the pic that actually showed it installed) Mcleod Fab tow hook kit and rear brace kit RRO Stage 1 bumper kit Series 2 Patriot like mine with the RRO Lift kit installed to show idea of what it will look like lifted.
