Thank you for the video. You saved me $400 the dealer wanted. I found that by cranking the steering all the way to one side I was able to do it without raising the car or removing the wheel.
I'm glad it helped you out, thats crazy expensive im glad you saved your money. also great idea doing it that way 👍
A Jeep dealer wanted $500 for both sides to be replaced. How absurd. Thanks for this video.
Excellent info. Thank you! Very helpful for understanding my 2018 Renegade. Much appreciated
Also. I learned through fellow renegade owners on FB. The MOOG. Is 1/4” longer than the stock ones. That’s why it shows as incompatible on Amazon. Can’t beat $16 each on Amazon. Same ones are $50 each at the auto stores.
I'm going to be doing this in a few days -- im getting MOOG k750795 // I have read on numerous forums- tighten till snug while its up off the tires- then after you got tires back and its on the ground re-tighten -- then after a few days of driving it and letting things settle- tighten once again
My wife's 2016 renny needs the left front done , ill be doing it tomorrow , I think the trick with the new one not lining up is you need to jack it up a bit higher under the strut and it will help next time just so you don't have to force it in and potentially damage the new link ...great 👍 video thanks for your help
Sir I have a 2016 model with 50 k on it and my links are fine... 2018 model and it has how many miles? and it needs links?? what was the cause for this repair?
Thanks nice video Be well!
I did replaced mine today. Its definitely a pain in the a** using a regular wrench. Theres very little wiggle room in the bottom screw
Do you have it jacked up on both sides of the car?
I've had my 2017 Renegade for 2 years. The seat bar links were faulty when I purchased and I got them done under warranty. Now 2 years later they're being replaced again. Is that normal?
2 years seems to soon to me but depending on the road conditions you have to drive on that will make a big difference on how long they last. I would recommend finding a better quality part then the oem ones
The dealer just charged me over $450.00 to do this. They stated they had to remove the whole bumper in order to replace the right-side sway bar link only. Does the bumper have to be removed to replace the sway bar link?
thats ridiculous, no it does not. I have many other videos for the renegade so if you need help with something else just check out the videos and save yourself money
Thank you so much for replying. :)
What was the sign that these needed to be changed? My 2017 renny is making a knocking noise whenever I hit even the smallest bump in the road.
thats exactly what mine was doing. it ended up breaking completely
they're easy to change
My front passenger side rattles on bumps, too. I'll be relieved if it is something this simple.
def gonna go to Harbor Freight and get the 21piece Go-Thru socket set for $24
🙂
What about the rear links? Everything seems stable. Although I don't have a jack to relieve tension off of the suspension. I was told it was my left strut, causing a clunk over small bumps. Even though the sound is coming from the right. Is it a link or a strut problem?
I'll have to make a video on the rears asap. its hard to say over the internet, I would find a jack so you can check both of them out. I'd check both sides as well
How do you have so much room to turn that ratchet on the back one?
My Jeep renegade is making a squeaking noise when turning steering wheel do you think it’s the sway bar links ?
It very well could be but it could also be another part of your suspension. anyway you could have someone turn the wheel while you look underneath to find where its coming from
Thanks for the reply I’m going Get someone to help me with that
@@danielr839 hope you figure it out, let me know what it was
Probably your lower ball joint ..
A garage wanted $250. to do that. I'll do it myself.
good idea save yourself some money
Does anyone know what REAR suspension scheme the jeep renegade limited fwd 1.6 mjet has? mcpherson or torsional axis?
All renegades are mcpherson strut all 4 corners
@@tonymazza8305 Thanks!!
Good job the same for jeep comapss right ??
I believe very similar
Do you have a link or part number for your new sway bar? I may have to do this to my wife’s and I want to make sure I get the right replacement part.
what year do u have snd is it awd or just fwd
@@603Mechanicvids 2015 FWD
@@603Mechanicvids l need to torque the nuts and how many pounds 2108 renegade sport 4 wd thank you
How much do swaybar links for jeep renegade cost
depends where you get them but I believe I paid $50
Has anybody been able to put together quick disconnect endlinks like this ? For the renegade, Cherokee Trailhawk or compass ?
Would this solve the clicking noise when turning lefthand right when stationary?
it may be your sway bar link, tough to tell not seeing it in person anyway you could have someone turn your wheel while you take a look snd see if thats what's making the noise
@@603Mechanicvids I can shake my sway links by hand and they are pretty loose similar to the ones you showed were bad when you fiddled with the threaded end on yours
definitely change them for sure im sure that's whats causing your noise
Bought new Swaybar links straight from MOPAR .. No new nuts, and they look dirrenty then what you have for a Compass....
they should have sent new nuts with it i believe the compass has almost the exact same setup as the renegade
I just replaced mines and two days later is broken again anyone knows why is this happening
Big O tires told me i needed Struts, got them changed, still make same sound…mechanic told me it was probably just Sway bar 😩😩
Yeah it was most likely the sway bar links
Mine made a clunking sound by i changed them
@@603Mechanicvids thanks for video…
yup I did the struts on my 2015 Renegade Trailhawk and it sounds the same or worse. Links are on order.
Can some one tell Me if this rear link will work on the 2020 Jeep Compass and what’s the part number
Did you ever try this on your compass? I’m thinking about doing it next weekend
Was this renegade awd?
Yes
@@603Mechanicvids appreciate your quick response. I’m doing these on a 2018 awd renegade. It was a hassle getting the parts. Everywhere I look they only gave me options for the rear links
Got mine on Amazon, installed them today no more rattling. Fit like a glove. MOOG K750795 Stabilizer Bar Link. I have a 2016 Renegade Latitude 4WD. Thanks for the video 👍.
Ughhh NTB charging me $220 to replace one of mine :( looks pretty easy
yes its definitely a pretty easy job to do next time maybe diy and save some money
My new ones keep loosening up
