The Grenadier is built to go the distance — but with a few key upgrades, it becomes a whole different beast. Whether you're gearing up for weekend trails or building a full expedition rig, these five mods deliver immediate performance, protection, and practicality.
🔧 1. Front Bumper & Recovery Points (OG4x4)
The stock front end is solid — but it’s not ready for serious recovery or trail damage. A heavy-duty bumper with built-in recovery points gives you protection and confidence when the terrain gets sketchy.
Bonus: OG4x4’s in-house design offers direct bolt-on installation and doesn’t mess with your parking sensors.
🛡 2. Underbody Protection
The trail doesn’t care what you paid for your rig. One sharp rock is all it takes to ruin a trip. Skid plates and diff guards protect your most critical components when the ground gets rough.
Think of them like armor — lightweight where you need it, reinforced where it counts.
🧭 3. Roof Rack System
You don’t always need more space — until you do. Whether it’s for fuel cans, RTTs, or recovery boards, a full-length roof rack turns the Grenadier into a mission-ready overlander.
Tip: Look for racks designed specifically for the Grenadier to avoid sketchy fitment.
🔦 4. Lighting Upgrades
Factory lighting is decent. But “decent” isn’t good enough when you’re navigating a backcountry trail at 2 a.m. Ditch lights, scene lighting, and roof bar LEDs improve visibility and safety.
Pair these with a clean switch controller for a pro-grade setup.
🛞 5. Wheels + Tires
You already know this one. Bigger tires = better clearance, better traction, better everything. Just don’t forget to pair them with the right offset and a wheel that can take abuse.

The Grenadier is already built tough — but these upgrades give it the edge it deserves. Whether you’re overlanding across continents or just dialing in your weekend rig, starting with these five mods ensures your build is ready for whatever the trail throws at it.
