Welcome to the forums, good to have you here.
What can you tell us about your 03 KJ? Running well ? What color is it?

 

[harleybrown4160]

My jeep is white with tan leather, seats are great one little rip on drivers ,new motor at 214,000 did heater core also. New motor had 89,000 on it one bad window regulator on passenger back door but my dog prefers the drivers side window anyway.....lol

 

[LibertyTC]

Very good, sounds like you are all set except for the window regulator. What kind of dog do you have?

Steiger performance makes a solid fix depending what may be broken.
Here are links about the window reg: https://www.google.com/search?q=jeepkj.com+window+regualtor&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&client=firefox-b-1
Hope this helps.

Welcome to the site
As far as grill guards go, they are worthless unless you just have to have the "look"
They are very thin metal and bend easily

I'd use the $$$ for real upgrades, like suspension, tune up, changing all fluids etc before doing other things

Welcome to the board.
Just picked mine up a few months ago too, new here also.
Listen to the old farts like Tom and start with the Maintenace items and then touch up the rust areas if you have any starting.
That's the first two things I did and then I detailed it in and out.
The rear end and transfer case I bet where never changed from day one I bet.
Glad I started with the fluids.
Now I'm heading down the path of bling bling next year.

I see that you have an 03 Renegade. Was wondering if it came with rock sliders like the 06 Renegade? If it does I might call some junkyards to see if I can pull one off.

Jay,
Mine came with the silver running boards (see picture, not mine)and 3 skid plates.
Skid plate for the engine, transmission/transfer case and gas tank.
Currently, my running boards are in the paint booth, getting them painted black.

An ARB bumper is the best , mine took out 6 deer over the years at speed and couldn't tell it
The so called bull bars, little stick on things in front is what body shops love, little bend there goes your grill, hood , etc
Stick with a stock paper filter in stock box, out preforms any and all K&N s period
