885 JK WRANGLER UNLIMITED RENEGADE RACK
INSTALLATION SHEET
Important Notes: Some brands of windshield light brackets and snorkels may not be compatible with the 885 Renegade Roof Rack System. Body lifts are also not compatible with this rack system. Please keep this in mind when deciding upon any upgrades or accessories that may conflict with the racks’ mounting locations. It is
recommended to have an additional person to assist you during some steps of this installation process. Some
customers may be sensitive to the wind noise generated by a roof rack. Mounting of the optional accessory ‘888 Renegade Air Dam’ can drastically reduce the amount of wind noise experienced.

Phase 1: Mounting Brackets Installation
1. The side of the A-pillar has 4 Torx bolts per side. Remove
the top 3 and install the A-pillar mount with the 8mm flat head Allen screws. Repeat for the opposite side. Fig. 1 Note: If you are at all concerned about possibly of damaging the paint under the brackets, utilize a piece of bicycle inner tube and trace around the mounting surface of the bracket. Cut it out for a makeshift gasket.
2. The rear mount brackets are a little more involved. In most
cases, temporary removal of the rear bumper and related bracketry is required.
3. Take the Rear Mount Bracket labeled ‘P’ (passenger side)
and match it up with the Pinch Seam Clamp labeled ‘P’. Loosely thread the 7/16” x 2.5” bolts along with a 7/16” lock washer and a 7/16” flat washer up through the bottom of the Rear Mount Bracket and into the Pinch Seam Clamp.

4. Hold the assembled passenger side bracket against the side of the frame where the factory bumper mount
holes are located. The pinch seam of the Jeep tub should set between the bracket and the clamp. Utilizing

a factory bumper side bolt, loosely thread one through the bottom hole of the bracket into the frame. This is to hold the brackets into place while you slide the rear bumper back on. Repeat steps for the driver side.

5. If you are reinstalling the factory plastic bumper, you will need to mount the bumper brackets on the
outside of the Rear Mount Brackets. If you are fitting an aftermarket bumper, you most likely will be ‘sandwiching’ the bumper mount brackets between the frame and the Rear Mount Brackets. This is why the lower bolt is loosely threaded into the frame as it’s easier to pull that bolt quickly while fitting the bumper and reinserting it after the bumper has been fully seated. It can be a bit of a juggle installing the rear bumper while keeping the Rear Mount Brackets in their correct positions, so an extra set of hands is very helpful. Once you have the rear bumper set all the way on and the mounting holes lined up, thread the remaining factory bolts through the Rear Mount Brackets and into the frame and tighten them. Now tighten the Pinch Seam Clamp bolts to complete this step in the process. Fig. 4 & Fig. 5
Note: For additional strength of the rear mounts, provisions have been made to add carriage bolts through the u­shaped part of the bracket and through the top surface of the bumper endcaps. Spacers may need to be fabricated to close the gap between the two surfaces. (Hardware not provided)
