New User - New KJ!

[Blackrose]

Hi All

I browsed these forums quite a bit in my research on what kind of vehicle to purchase as a summer/weekend fun machine. After passing up on a 2012 RAV4 that my landlord was offering us for not a very great deal considering it’s been sitting for 3 years in the garage, I decided on looking for a KJ.

So I ended up going for a local purchase of a 2004 KJ Renegade! It has 80k miles on it, and is in immaculate condition for it’s age with absolutely no rust. The owner took it to the dealership for regular maintenance most of its life and is a mechanic himself so it seems to be well taken care of. I got a really fair price for it as well. Now to figure out what kind of mods I should do to it....

Looking forward to making use of this forum as a source of info. Thanks!

Welcome to the forum, good choice!
2004 very good year for KJ and your Rene' looks great, so clean!
Since you have the fogs installed, here is a Mod that will brighten the road up ! (what a difference)

Welcome, one of my KJs is an 04 that I bought new, you will like it
Looks pretty good overall
doesn't look like it is too sagged ( suspension)
