2005 Jeep Liberty Rear Bumper & Tail Light Install, Project Renegade Ep.08

[@focus1ism]

Nice! I have an 04 liberty & like watching others take pride in their jeep like I do. Clean work!

[@jamesburgess6211]

I am getting ready to paint all of the exterior plastic on my 2004 Liberty. This video was very informative. I liked the way you mounted the camera on the fenders. The out takes at the end of the video we’re nice. 😂 I am now going to watch your earlier Project Renegade vids.

[@FoundAGarage]

Ah hope you see this! Did you respray your exterior plastic w a similar factory dark gray? If yes, could you provide the paint brand and code/color name if handy? Everyone just tells me “paint em black” but for my cars color I’d prefer the dark gray from factory. I like it.

[@tk429]

Just got rear ended today. Thanks for the walk through because I need to replace the tail light, bumper cover, and a fender flair. Shout Out to Ohio

[@RockyXTV]

Awesome to have another viewer from Ohio! Not so awesome about getting rear-ended.... Thanks for watching though, and good luck with your repairs!

[@gordon6029]

Thanks for this. I have to do my bumper. This saves me tons of time.

[@RockyXTV]

Glad the video could help! Thanks for watching!

[@benijouer]

Dude, that was absolutely awesome. I just bought a used 2005 Liberty and it needs a new bumper and rear fender flare (tire blowout). I'll watch it a couple of more times but basically it showed me that this out of my league (lack of tools and space being major issues). Again, I thoroughly enjoyed this video. You've got a great manner for making 'em. Thank you.

[@RockyXTV]

Thank you very much! I'm glad you liked it, thanks for watching and for the Sub!

[@bradforddonovan704]

Really helpful...my replacement went pretty much exactly like this. I'll just add that I didn't need a torch to remove the step pads. I was able to use a utility knife to cut off the melted tab.

[@RockyXTV]

That's great that your step pads came of without having to set them on fire like I had to, who thought of that design!? Thanks for watching!

[@philoldham3255]

Hey Rocky, good stuff again. You've got me hooked.

[@RockyXTV]

Thank you very much, I'm glad you like the videos. Thanks for watching!

[@johnfromakron2]

Nice job. Picking my jeep up in two days. You have inspired me.

[@RockyXTV]

Awesome! Thank you for watching.

[@Evocati-Augusti]

i have a 2005 same one but mine came with fog lights mounted on front?i cant find one like it,and it was bought with them?

[@sevenslotgrillful]

I've got the exact same repair at hand and I thought "what a useful video" after I saw this. A freak accident in which my '05 Lib rolled down the driveway, (left in N w/o P brake) and hit the neighbor's car, busted the D Side Tail light (replaced) and damaged the rear bumper. The body shop are quoting a pretty big amount for repair. I feel like I can handle it myself. Could you please share P/Ns?

They have the grey textured or the smooth one. I hope this helps you out, thanks for watching and don't forget to subscribe to keep up on all the new videos! Thanks again.

[@jahsen]

Do you have a video on how to replace the front bumper? is it any harder than the rear bumper? what clips would i need?

[@RockyXTV]

Yep, I believe it's episode 6. If I remember correctly it's mostly screws and bolts on the front with a few plastic rivets, but I'm not sure. It should all be in the video, I have all the Liberty repairs in a playlist called Project Renegade.

[@202WinkProductions]

My tail light is loose like two screws are unattached , how Can I put it back in

[@RockyXTV]

At around the 2:45 mark of the video I show you how to remove the tail lights. You would just need to remove the lights like I show in the video and inspect the little white plastic squares where the screws thread in. Make sure those aren't stripped out or missing, if they are you can get new ones at most auto parts stores. Or you can find bigger screws and run those in there. The opposite side of the lights kinda snap in as well, so you might check if they are snapped in all the way. I hope this helps you out, thanks for watching!

[@Gringo_Mayo]

Rocky X TV i just bought some aftermarket ipcw led tail lights, but i am missing my plastic securing pins for the right side of the passenger tail light. Because of this, they do not snap in, therefore when i screw them in tightly, there is a rather large gap inbetween the light, and the jeep. Do you know where to buy these plastic things? Or do you at least know what they are called? I would even settle for a way to jerry rig the light in there. Thanks for the help!

[@TheTheepictryhard]

I don’t understand how u got those Christmas style push clips in I got both the clips an the gun I just don’t understand how u got them in

[@RockyXTV]

The "Christmas tree" style clips just push in. Unless we are talking about different types of clips.

[@greynand]

Great Job lot to learn here

[@chrisn.4136]

Where did you get the newer style taillights?

[@chloehill4733]

I have a set that I can’t use in Australia 😂

[@jimmydamonkey41]

Agree with the comments - your videos are extremely helpful. I want to add driving lights (Hella) directly to the front bumper. I don't want to add a brush bar because I tow my Liberty behind our RV. Any instructions for adding the lights? Much appreciated and please keep this up!

[@jahsen]

can you tell me the additional fender clip you bought? i need to replace my rear bumper and i wanna make sure i got everything

[@RockyXTV]

Sure here are some links, these are the normal fender flare clips. www.amazon.com/Chrysler-Fender-Moulding-Liberty-55157055AA/dp/B00B17E0SE/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1469369166&sr=8-2&keywords=jeep+fender+clips and these are the four other style that I had to get. www.amazon.com/Liberty-Rocker-Panel-Bumper-Fascia/dp/B0040CX3HG/ref=pd_sim_263_2?ie=UTF8&dpID=41WwWgeXa%2BL&dpSrc=sims&preST=_AC_UL160_SR160%2C160_&psc=1&refRID=N8AENC3C64DPQA0GGXBK I hope this helps, don't forget to subscribe to keep up on all the new videos!

[@jahsen]

Thanks and wish me luck, Thank you very much with your video i got the confidence that i can do it, although the step pads will be a tough one to deal with since i dont have a torch..

[@RockyXTV]

John Jahsen Panes Yeah... those were a pain!

[@angelresendiz8266]

Great stuff man! I love your videos!

[@karahjones7297]

What kind of exhaust set up do you have on that?

[@RockyXTV]

In this video?... an old one! It's the stock exhaust in this video and the sound in the opening for these videos is also stock, just worn out. If you check out some of the new videos it sounds much better! It has an MBRP Performance cat-back system and a set of headers on it now. Thanks for watching and if you haven't already make sure to subscribe to keep up on all the new videos and products, thanks again!

[@ericraeder3832]

That's really glossy what paint u use

[@anthonyfalco3474]

Hey Rocky I'm back to ask you a question. I'm putting Renegade fender flares on my liberty. Where did you find those clips I'm having trouble finding the last 2 are different

[@RockyXTV]

Are these the ones you are looking for? www.amazon.com/Liberty-Rocker-Panel-Bumper-Fascia/dp/B0040CX3HG/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1506531329&sr=8-2&keywords=jeep+bumper+clips

[@anthonyfalco3474]

Yup those are it thank you so much

[@anthonyfalco3474]

Rocky X TV also could I use and push rivets for the wheel well molding

[@RockyXTV]

I don't think it would hold, there are 2 or 3 spots that use the "Christmas tree" style push clips. I used plastic rivets that I got at harbor freight, they came with the rivet gun and everything for like 15$

[@anthonyfalco3474]

Rocky X TV ok what size rivets do you think

[@davidb2390]

Sweet series! where did you get those tail light guards?

[@RockyXTV]

They were on the Jeep when I got it. I couldn't find another set anywhere, so I reused them. I'm still trying to find were to get new ones, but no luck so far. Thanks for watching!

[@HDP501]

Where did you get the replacement plastic rivets for the fender flares?

[@RockyXTV]

Its has been a while but I believe I got them on Amazon.

[@HDP501]

Thanks.

[@CatEyes5240]

Beautiful job

[@jamessanscrainte9533]

Great video! Thanks man! And, great work!

[@patwentworth129]

good vid, also love the equality sticker.

[@SaveOurDisabilityFund]

I like the original liberty tail lights better. All the aftermarket lights have no amber portion for the signals/hazards. I find that to have less utility to have all red.

[@RockyXTV]

I never thought about these not having amber lighting until you mentioned it. I had to go back and see if the OEM ones did. Thanks for watching!

[@TheTheepictryhard]

What tools did you use in this?

[@RockyXTV]

There are so many and it was so long ago that I honestly don't remember what I used. I do have a list of some tools, parts, equipment, supplies and other stuff I use, there's a link in the description. Thanks for watching!

[@TheTheepictryhard]

Rocky X TV do you remember where you got your wheel opening flares from m

[@RockyXTV]

The flares come factory like that on the Renegade and Rocky Mountain edition Liberty's.

[@TheTheepictryhard]

Rocky X TV oh I thought you replaced them do u know a cheap place to get replacement flares also what’s the tool you used for securing the clips on the bumper an flares

[@RockyXTV]

Other than salvage yards I'm not sure where you could get the flares at a good price. The tool was a plastic rivet gun from Harbor freight.

[@t4thfavor1212]

Part numbers and vendor for the aftermarket tail lights please.

[@RockyXTV]

I got them on Amazon, here's a link. www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00O83HM0Q/ref=od_aui_detailpages00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Thanks for watching and don't forget to subscribe to keep up on all the new videos!

[@ditavalerio615]

Good video 👍👍

[@randybryant2912]

Hmmm... shoe goo from wally's world to attach the step plate and think the plasti dip on the lower trim would be a great way to go on this

[@RockyXTV]

That is a good alternative! I've had others recommend whatever this "shoe goo" stuff is, I've never seen or used it. Thanks for watching!

[@emmanuelrodriguez83]

Que hay amigo dónde puedo comprar las protecciones de las luces traseras

[@RockyXTV]

Aquí hay un enlace a las luces. goo.gl/Pyt2vd y aquí hay un enlace a mi tienda de Amazon donde tengo otras partes de Liberty www.amazon.com/shop/rockyxtv

[@emmanuelrodriguez83]

Y no vendes las puras protecciones de las luces traseras

[@RockyXTV]

Oh, las rejillas protectoras, pensé que estabas hablando de las luces traseras. Esos vinieron con el jeep cuando lo compré. Lo siento, no sé dónde comprar esos.

[@emmanuelrodriguez83]

@@RockyXTV gracias amigo

[@drnutell]

I think you just push the pin in on those plastic fasteners not drill them out.

[@presidenteldermarkhoffman8304]

You need smear some shmeg lol de Electric on plugs

[@RockyXTV]

Yeah, I have a big tub of Dielectric Grease but always forget to use it when filming LOL. I usually go back afterwards and do it, I forget Anti-Seize and LockTite most of the time during videos as well. Thanks for watching!
