I won't be buying another Jeep, tired of having to take off front end just to do minor maintenance. A salute to you for posting a great effort. Oh yes i replaced a turning light bulb through the quarter panel "successfully" but did break my finger so i would not recommend that rout.
On the latest model there’s also a bolt at the top of the bumper beneath the plastic wheel well that you’ll have to remove on both sides. Otherwise great video it helps tremendously with light bar installs
Hi Aaron, thanks for posting, I need to get my front bumper off for a led light bar install, your video is great and now I have some knowledge that the front bumper ain't going to be that difficult to remove. Mikey P in Australia
Thank you very much for teacher us fix our hero Patriot a limited edition 2014 do you see me taking to the body shop and repair shops we’re at the car dealer cost more money out of our pocket during this pandemic coronavirus time
Thanks for the video! I need to replace the upper and lower front bumpers, does the grill have to come off at the same time? And how are those 2 bumpers attached to each other if I want to replace them separately?
I’m pretty sure the grill and bumper are attached by plastic rivets that’ll have to be drilled out and replaced, I’m pretty sure the two pieces of bumper are connected by clips and maybe more rivers but I’m not too sure
Didn’t actually check, I think you can but I believe they’re connected together by plastic rivets I thought I read somewhere, which means they’d have to be drilled out and then re-mounted to each other somehow afterwards
sorry man, i took out all the bolts i have. i don’t have the patriot no more but double check where the bumper and front inner fenders meet there might be a bolt there you might have to take out. if i remember correctly it’s in a weird spot
I have a 2015 Patriot . It’s got now about 95000 miles on it . Is it worth more tore down and selling parts . I’m not trying to run a parts place at home but I would enjoy taking it apart because it ruined my masculinity . In good shape I’d say fair condition runs good reliable I’m not sure why my girlfriend dates me or gets in the thing . Bless her
@@aaronhaight22 Would your wheel setup work on an 09? I saw that video and really like that set up but mines an 09 and I dont wanna commit to buying it if it wont work.
im not too sure, you may be able to remove just the grill but if i recall correctly its riveted to the bumper so you may need to take it all off. thanks for watching!

Great work, thing looks gnarly with no front end not gonna lie lol
thanks for watching!

I took extra one out, still won’t release
Sorely disappointed that I had to take off my bumper also to change out my headlights 😢

Thanks man it means a lot!

Are the bumpers connected to the grille? I ordered both bumpers and grill separate
Yes i believe its clipped together somehow. Thanks for watching!
@@aaronhaight22 yeah I had to zip tie mine together, china parts weren’t a perfect fit 😂
Do I have to remove the bumper to remove the grille?
Hey Aaron do a replacement turn signal casing removal and also how did you do the aggressive eye on the patriot
Angry eyes were 3M double sided tape stick on

Do do they make like a old mans eyes lost in in his own home looking headlight lenses.? I feel with mine at least it more fitting
Can u show how to remove and replace side fender? My front bumper and side fender got smashed in a accident.
I can’t unfortunately, no longer own the Patriot, sorry!
What tires are you running thank you very much
Do you need to remove the whole bumper if you just want to remove the grill?
Do I need to do this to replace the headlamp housing? My headlamp was broken/smashed in an accident. ty
I believe so, I’m not certain but if it’s anything like changing Wrangler headlight housing than I’d say yes it is required
aaronhaight22 hey i need help, there is a rubber cover that is above the radiator is like engine protector do you know how is called?
What year is this
2012
That bumper from the 2011 model onwards, can it serve my 2010 jeep? I want you to look better with that bumper
Maybe be similar removal but not too sure
Can the headlight be adjusted to keep the lights from blinding incoming traffic?
Yes I believe there’s a white plastic hex alignment bolt at the top of the headlight housing when you open the hood to adjust the headlights
So this is how u put a new grill on?
I believe it’s a similar process
Can you take the grill off without taking of the front bumper?
Didn’t actually check, I think you can but I believe they’re connected together by plastic rivets I thought I read somewhere, which means they’d have to be drilled out and then re-mounted to each other somehow afterwards
Excellent vid. Thankyou very much.
No problem, thanks for watching!
Txs, great video- worked for me!!
Glad it helped, thanks for watching!
What size of tires do you have?
30x9.50R15 BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2’s and 15x8 Trailmaster TM5-5865 steel rims w/ 3.75 backspacing
Something is missing on this because it won’t work on a 2016 patriot. Almost but, not quite.
sorry man, i took out all the bolts i have. i don’t have the patriot no more but double check where the bumper and front inner fenders meet there might be a bolt there you might have to take out. if i remember correctly it’s in a weird spot
thanks

will this work on a 2015 patriot?
Yes, 2011-2017 are the same steps, 2007-2010 may be a bit different.
@@aaronhaight22 Would your wheel setup work on an 09? I saw that video and really like that set up but mines an 09 and I dont wanna commit to buying it if it wont work.
Yes I have seen people with earlier models with the same setup.
Thank you !
