  1. Suspension and Tires
    2010 Manual Patriot Sport This is my first car and so far I've done some minor modifications such as a tow package and some larger wheels. (17" rims) I don't plan on doing very heavy duty off roading but I would appreciate the looks and extra clearance of a 2-3" lift. What I'd like are some...
  2. Suspension and Tires
    Hello everyone, I’m fixing to start modding my 2012 Patriot 4x4 automatic, and first on the list is a lift kit. I’m having a hard time deciding on the best option. Rocky Road Outfitters - the tallest at 2 1/3 inches of lift, claims to be the official Mopar kit, and has control arms which...

    I unfortunately wrecked my Patriot last December, and have a new in the box RRO lift to fit. Anyone interested in purchasing? I only opened the box to inspect, it’s all there, never touched. Thanks.

    I have a 2017 Jeep patriot 4WD high altitude, I'm having trouble finding what is the correct size bushings for my jeep. AutoZone or other places didn't have the correct size and the Mopar parts site doesn't give me any dimensions, the part number from the originals is 5039149AB. If you can list...
  6. Newbie Check-In
    Hey everyone! I'm new to the group and I am curious about some things. A few months ago I purchased a 2013 Jeep Patriot Latitude 2WD. I would like to add new parts to the Jeep to make it a better overall vehicle. I've considered adding an upgraded suspension, better tires, and possibly switching...
  7. Engine and Drivetrain
    Hey Y’all, I have a 2012 jeep patriot latitude 2wd. I have this clunking noise coming from the driver side tire area and I cannot figure out what it is at all. It is usually when i go over bumps, especially the littlest ones. I did the wobble test while i had it jacked up, grabbing the wheel...
  8. Suspension and Tires
    Hey guys so I am new to this and just got my first keep two days ago, 2015 Patriot. I have been doing research about lift kits and wanted something but not to aggressive and something were I wouldn’t have to change much else. Anyone have any experience with Daystars 1.5” lift kit? I’m planning...
  9. Suspension and Tires
    Hi all, Thought I'd ask you lot about an issue I'm currently having with our Patriot. So I've replaced the lower suspension arms on the front... But noticed that one side the wheel sticks out further and has a lot more camber than before. The track rod end needed a lot of adjustment this side...
  10. Suspension and Tires
    Hello, friends. My 2009 Patriot is hurting. I have a cracked subframe and it needs immediate attention. Significant rust involved, not 100% certain if that caused the crack, but for what it's worth. The body shop folks are saying $1,000-$1,500 for repairs, with the possible high end of that...
  11. Suspension and Tires
    I have a 2008 Patriot with the FDII and recently put on brand new struts on all 4 sides but the rear is sagging heavily. What could it be that is doing this? I took it to moab and did Klondike Bluffs with no issue but I'm worried that something is broken. Anyone have any idea what is wrong here?
  12. Suspension and Tires
    Hey all, I've been looking for alternatives for the STU lift kit, as their site page seems to be down, and I'm not sure where else to get them. I came across these adjustable height coilovers by Maxpeeding Rods, but the description is pretty lame. Not sure if they are intended to lower or lift...
  13. Jeep Patriot General Discussion
    Hi Everyone, I thought I'd post something to the forum regarding a lot of repairs I'm going to have done to my 2010 Patriot North Edition, with FD1. First a bit of history, I actually joined the forum a long time ago but I didn't manage to visit/post, the kids were younger back then and things...

    Hey, Everybody. I've recently moved to Las Vegas and am looking for a decent reasonable mechanic. I basically need rear suspension work done and tune-up. Any recommendations?
  15. Suspension and Tires
    When accelerating my 2007 Patriot Limited FWD will pull to the left. I have to turn the wheel to about 1 o'clock to offset the torque steering. When off the accelerator the vehicle drives straight. The History: I have new-ish tires with less than 10k on them. Even wear and properly inflated...
  16. Suspension and Tires
    I'm trying to change the toe link on my 2008 Jeep Patriot and I cannot figure out how to get the bolt that's fastened to the trailing arm to release. I've put a ton of torque on it with a breaker bar, impact, everything I can think of, and nothing moves. Is there a trick to it?
  17. Jeep Patriot General Discussion
    Grabbed the SERVICE manuals for my Jeep from some shady manual site. It said they were for 2008-2016 but are labelled 2014. Figured I'd share, here's a download link: https ://1drv.ms/u/s!AhRkd6_gUNEigZdHOIYSlL0X8VeyUg :smile2:

    My Jeep has for some time squeak while braking. It's not very loud, but i did get new brake pads about 6 months ago and probably have less than 2,000 miles on them. They said the pads were fine but i still am wondering what it squeaks. It is usually when i'm coming to a stop from under 25mpn...
