Hey all, i bought a jeep tj 6 months ago so im still sorta new. First jeep forum post ever too. Anyways its a two door soft top and it has decals that say renegade on the sides of the hood, pinstrips from the doors to the back with renegade on the back sides as weel, and a picture of a indian head under the 4.0 decal. I cant find out anything about it, it looks factory, just a little sun faded. Anyone heard of this?

It was most likely done as an aftermarket mod, I don't think TJs ever came in this variant.

Pop your VIN# in here and you can get all good info:

TJs never had a Renegade option. Someone put those decals on it.

Here's a thread with all the "special edition" and trim packages the TJ was available with:
Trim Packages and Special Editions

That isn't entirely true. The Jeep TJ in export trim to Australia is called the Jeep Renegade. Here is what the decals look like. We have a friend in Australia who purchased some from the dealer down there and sent them over.

I learn something new every day! That's pretty cool.

There is another vehicle that uses the Sahara name so they have to call it something else. Also the same reason Canadian Wranglers are called TJ instead of Wrangler. There is another vehicle with the Wrangler name in Canada.

Oh yeah, that makes perfect sense then now that you explain it.

This is going to sound dumb since I'm Canadian, but what other vehicle was sold here under the Wrangler name?
 
The Wrangler :D

I found this:
The Wrangler name was not used in Canada, as it was a trim level of Chevrolet pickup in that market. Instead, 1987 to 1995 models were sold as YJ, and 1997 to 2006 models were sold as TJ.

No...unless you're talking about the weird YJ abomination.

That thing rhymed with hay!!!



TJ never had such a package.
 
Loads of TJ Renegades in Australia as mrblaine said, I am pretty sure the early USA Sahara was called Renegade here because we had the very popular Toyota Landcruiser Sahara. Later ones are not quite a USA Sahara but sort of a mish mash much higher trim level than a sport. All TJ Renegades have the mad smiling Indian Brave and Renegade logo and came with hardtop as standard :)
TJ sport was the base model in Australia then Renegade with tan trim green tan seats followed later by the Golden Eagle then last the 65th anniversary, They never sold TJ Rubi but introduced it after 2007

Liberty was is Subaru wagon in Australia for many years so Jeep Liberty's were called Cherokee and Cherokees were called Grand Cherokee.
