Yakima Accessories and Parts Review - 2010 Jeep Patriot- Video
Today, on our 2010 Jeep Patriot, we're going to be testing the 38" Yakima Fairing designed for use on the crossbars. Its part number is Y07047. I've already removed one wingnut and carriage bolt from the left side. I'll show you here on the right side where I'm talking about and how to do it. Essentially, we're just going to loosen the wingnut up and push the carriage bolt out of that clamp. Remember, the rounded head portion is facing out of the top. This will be the way we reinstall it later. With those removed, we're simply going to place the Fairing up onto the roof line of the vehicle. more

Yakima Fairing Review - 2014 Jeep Patriot- Video
Today on our 2014 Jeep Patriot, we'll be test fitting the 38 inch Fairing for Yakima roof rack, part number Y07047. With our Yakima rail grab roof system already installed on our vehicle, we'll begin our test fit by placing our Fairing directly in front of the front load bar. We'll remove the wing nut, take out the carriage bolt, and we'll bring a clamp around our front bar. We'll do this for the next one over as well. We'll replace our carriage bolt, and loosely attach our wing nut. Now we can move to the drivers side. We'll place the farthest clamp from us around our front load bar, remove the wing nut and the carriage bolt on the clamp closest to us, bring it around our front load bar, replace the carriage bolt, then the wing nut. We'll check to make sure we have our Fairing centered. Once we've got it centered, we'll tighten the wing nuts on the outside clamps, and that will complete today's test fit of the 38 inch Fairing for Yakima roof racks, part number Y07047 on our 2014 Jeep Patriot. more

Roadmaster Even Brake 2nd Vehicle Kit Installation - 2014 Jeep Patriot- Video
Today on our 2014 Jeep Patriot, we'll be installing the Road Master even brake second vehicle kit, part number RM-98400. Now to begin with, this vehicle already has a base plate kit installed on it, as well as the bracket to mount our breakaway switch. The first thing we're going to to is we need to mount our breakaway switch to the bracket on the base plate. To do this, we'll use the bolt and the nut that's supplied with the kit. You can see that there's a two-prong plug off the end of it. We'll then need to go ahead and connect the long black wire that has the same connectors on it. We'll need to route this wire into the vehicle's cab so it can be plugged into the transponder. more

Trailer Wiring Harness Installation - 2010 Jeep Patriot 118552- Video
Today on this 2010 Jeep Patriot we are going to install wiring harness part number 118552 from Tow Ready and we are also going to use a 4-pole flat connector mounting bracket and we are going to use part number 118144 also from Tow Ready. For a quick overview what is going to happen is we are going to make our attachment points behind both tail lights and then we are going to run a 4-pole wiring harness down to the hitch and we are going to take our power wire and run it to the battery and we are going to run it up the driver side frame rail up to the battery. Lets begin. Open up the tail gate and start taking off the tail lights. When you take the attachment points off these are actually plastic rivets underneath here, the cap is kind of fragile so be careful when you remove it. Use a screwdriver to get it started and then use a trim panel tool to remove it. Gently pull it back a little bit, maybe wiggle it, and then pull it apart. At this point we can leave the light attached and then take off the other one. If you can it might be a better idea to disconnect the wiring harness from the light and put the light in the same spot just so it does not move around. 01:06 more
