How to accessorise your Ineos Grenadier: Essential 4x4 mods

The Ineos Grenadier is already a seriously capable off-roader straight off the showroom floor – with solid axles, a proper ladder chassis and proven hardware. 

However, like any good 4×4, it’s also a blank canvas. With the right upgrades, you can push it even further – improving everything from storage and touring comfort to protection and suspension performance. Whether you’re building a long-range tourer or a weekend rock-crawler, these accessories will help transform your Grenadier into a purpose-built rig, ready for whatever lies beyond the blacktop.

When it comes to Grenadier-specific gear, Expedition HQ’s in-house XSPEC range has quickly become the go-to for Aussie owners chasing tough, well-engineered kit. Built for real-world off-road use, XSPEC products strike the balance between form, function and proper field-tested reliability.

XSPEC Combo Kit

1

The XSPEC Xframe / 30L Diesel Tank / Transfer Pump combo is a solid option if you want to carry extra diesel in your Grenadier without chewing up interior space. It’s a bolt-on setup that mounts externally using two XSPEC Xframes and includes everything you need to get going.

The 30L tank locks in place and can be filled while mounted. When it’s time to transfer fuel, the included pump and adapter funnel let you top up straight into your main tank – no need to lift or mess around with jerries. The second Xframe can be set up to carry other gear like Maxtrax Lites, a pantry unit or a jerry can holder. It’s a tidy way to expand your touring range and keep essential gear on hand.

XSPEC Pantry and Jerry

1

The XSPEC Pantry Box gives you about 25 litres of extra storage, mounted to the XSPEC window utility frame (sold separately). It fits either side of the Grenadier and comes with an aluminium shelf for two-tier storage.

You can choose a lift-up lid for quick access or a fold-down door that doubles as a table. The box is built from powder-coated aluminium and includes a lockable lid. Its smaller size means you can still run another XSPEC accessory beside it – like a jerry can holder. All mounting hardware is included and it’s been cleared for use with the standard Grenadier mirrors.

XSPEC Drawer System

1

This full-width twin-drawer system is designed specifically for the Grenadier’s boot layout, making use of every inch without interfering with rear seatbacks or anchor points. The drawers are deep, lockable, and mounted on heavy-duty runners that won’t complain under a full load of tools, recovery gear, or kitchen kit.

The top deck is rated for stacking – ideal if you’re running a fridge slide, battery system or simply want to keep your storage layered. No rattles, no wasted space, and solid enough to handle constant corrugations or a few seasons of red dust.

XSPEC Electric Side Steps

1

A solid upgrade for anyone running lifted suspension or just wanting easier access day to day. These electric steps sit flush against the sill when not in use, then drop down automatically when a door opens – giving you a wide, sturdy step without dragging through mud or rocks.

They’re properly sealed against dust and water ingress, with a motor unit built to take knocks from dust, gravel or the occasional misjudged rut. Ideal if your build is doubling as a family vehicle or if you’re regularly loading rooftop gear and don’t want to keep climbing in like it’s a telegraph pole.

XSPEC XFRAME Rear Utility Panel

1

This external panel replaces the rear quarter window with a solid, mountable aluminium sheet that’s pre-drilled for MOLLE and accessory brackets. It’s a good way to shift essential but dirty kit – spades, high-lift jacks, Maxtrax, tool rolls – out of the cabin and onto the outside of the vehicle where it belongs.

Keeps your interior clean and free for passengers or fragile gear. Powder-coated to take the elements and stay looking sharp, even after a year in the scrub. Especially useful for serious tourers, tradies or anyone building a utilitarian work-travel setup.

TROOP roof-top tent

1

The TROOP hardshell rooftop tent is built for quick setup and pack-down, with gas struts that make deployment easy. It’s compact, low-profile and suits 4WDs, utes and trailers where space and weight matter.

The canvas body is waterproof and includes a small fixed awning for shade and weather protection. Openings on three sides with flyscreens allow good airflow. Inside, you get a memory foam mattress with an anti-condensation underlay, LED strip lighting, storage pockets and a telescopic ladder. External storage bags and a clear iPad sleeve are also built in.

Tent dimensions are 2100 mm x 1300 mm x 180 mm, with roof rails adding 60mm. The tent weighs 70kg, and the solar panel 12kg. The integrated roof rack is rated to carry 30kg.

XSPEC Under-Seat ARB Air Compressor

1

This hidden install tucks a full-size ARB compressor under the front seat – out of the way, protected from dust and weather, but always ready when you need it.

Whether you’re re-inflating after a beach run or topping up after rock work, having it hardwired and plumbed into a quick-connect outlet saves time and hassle. It’s powerful enough for 35s, doesn’t need a separate box bouncing around the rear, and frees up your load space for more important gear. One of the smartest low-visibility mods for any serious 4WD.

XSPEC TowPro Kit 2 with REDARC Brake Controller

1

Towing a trailer, boat or van through the hills or out bush? This kit includes the REDARC TowPro Elite – widely considered the best trailer brake controller on the market. It gives you proportional braking on-road and a fully manual mode for steep descents or loose off-road surfaces.

The dash-mounted rotary dial is simple to use and keeps the cabin neat, and the wiring is designed to integrate cleanly into the Grenadier’s loom. Whether you’re towing daily or once a month, it’s a solid, legal and hassle-free upgrade.

Front Runner ¾ Low Profile Roof Rack

1

Front Runner’s ¾ rack gives you a strong, versatile platform without taking over the whole roof. It keeps the centre of gravity low and the overall vehicle height down – especially useful if you’re still trying to fit in a carport or navigate tree-lined tracks.

Compatible with a huge range of Front Runner accessories – including jerry mounts, recovery brackets, rooftop tents and more – and built with off-road abuse in mind. If you’re not going full expedition rig but still want rooftop storage and flexibility, this is a well-balanced option.

METHOD Race Wheels – 703 & 707

1

703 → | 707 →
Built for real-world off-roading, not just for looks. The 703s are a great match for sand and rocky terrain, thanks to METHOD’s patented Bead Grip design – giving you the confidence to air down without the full faff of a beadlock.

The 707s lean more into rally-inspired styling, with similar strength but a cleaner finish for dual-purpose use. Both are forged alloy, load-rated for heavy touring setups, and come in offsets that suit the Grenadier with or without flares. Whether you’re chasing functionality, looks or both – they’re a proper step up from stock.

Chelsea Truck Co Styling Upgrades

1

If you want your Grenadier to stand out – or lean a bit more towards urban custom than farm ute – the Chelsea Truck Co offers a well-built styling package that goes beyond bolt-on tat. Options include redesigned grilles, extended arch sets, interior finishes and unique alloy wheels.

It’s all tailored to fit without messing with your panel lines or getting in the way of practical mods like sliders or roof racks. Doesn’t affect off-road capability if chosen right – just adds a bit more presence, whether you’re in the city or stuck in mud.

Eibach ProLift Suspension Kit

1

A mild, usable lift that’s designed to work with the Grenadier’s factory geometry. Gives you a bit more clearance under the diffs – especially handy for bigger tyres or loaded touring setups – without ruining ride comfort.

Springs are progressive-rate, meaning better handling when unloaded and improved support when you’re carrying weight. It’s not trying to turn your truck into a comp rig, but for most owners doing a mix of road, track and light touring, it’s the kind of reliable suspension upgrade that improves capability without bringing compromises.

King Shocks External Reservoir Suspension

1

For those pushing the Grenadier harder off-road or carrying serious weight over long distances, King Shocks are in a different league to basic suspension kits.

These race-proven dampers come with external reservoirs to manage heat build-up – critical when you’re dealing with long stretches of corrugations, big payloads or aggressive terrain. Fully adjustable for both compression and rebound, they allow proper tuning to match your driving style and setup.

They’re also fully rebuildable and backed by decades of off-road heritage. A top-tier choice for touring builds, remote-area travel or anyone who wants the best handling and control in demanding conditions.

Clevershade 270º Ultra Lite Awning

1

Covers you down one side and across the back in a single swing – ideal for quick stops or setting up a full touring camp. The 270º Clevershade gives you wide, usable coverage without taking up too much roof space or needing a team to deploy it.

Freestanding design makes it fast to set up solo, and its lightweight alloy arms and durable canvas make it more stable than many heavier awnings. Built with touring in mind – whether you’re stopping for a brew or covering the back of a drawer system – it’s a practical bit of kit for sun and light weather protection.

Black Sheep Rock Sliders

1

Hand-built in Australia and designed to cop real punishment, these steel rock sliders are a genuine layer of protection for your Grenadier’s sills and lower panels. Welded box-section construction makes them rigid enough to take hits from stumps, rocks or washouts, and they double as a side step with grip plate tops – ideal when loading the roof or getting passengers in and out.

They’re built with off-road reality in mind: high-clearance design, chamfered ends, and properly gusseted mounts that won’t bend at the first knock. A serious addition for those tackling technical tracks or overgrown trails.

LeTech Rear Ladder

1

This ladder bolts securely to the rear door, giving you safe and easy access to your roof rack or rooftop tent. Designed specifically for the Grenadier, it doesn’t interfere with door function, tail-lights or rear cameras, and the anti-slip rungs provide good footing even in wet or muddy boots.

Unlike universal ladders, it follows the bodyline cleanly and doesn’t require guesswork or modifications. For anyone regularly hauling gear up top, it’s one of those simple upgrades you’ll quickly wonder how you did without.

LeTech Full Roof Rack System

1

LeTech’s full-length roof rack is built to match the Grenadier’s roof profile and load ratings, offering a sturdy platform for anything from rooftop tents and solar panels to firewood and fuel drums.

Made from powder-coated aluminium, it strikes a good balance between strength and weight, with multiple tie-down points and side channels for mounting accessories like awnings, shovels or work lights. It’s a proper long-distance touring rack – no flex, no rattles, and no weird overhangs. Built with modularity in mind, it’s the kind of rack you fit once and keep for the life of the vehicle.

LeTech 6 x LED Spotlight Bar

1

This light bar is designed to integrate cleanly with the Grenadier’s factory roof lines, avoiding the usual headache of aftermarket brackets or ugly wiring runs. With six high-output LEDs, it throws a wide, usable beam pattern that works just as well on tight tracks as it does on open desert runs.

The housing is built tough – waterproof, dustproof and resistant to vibration – and it mounts securely without interfering with roof loads or front windscreen vision. A neat solution if you’re after proper lighting performance without the bolt-on look.

LeTech Rock Sliders / Quartermaster Running Boards

1

A more subtle alternative to full-blown rock sliders, these side steps give you a blend of everyday practicality and real trail protection.

The integrated tread plate provides solid footing for daily use or roof access, while the underlying structure protects the sill from the kind of knocks that can ruin your day off-road. Designed to look like they belong on the vehicle, not bolted on as an afterthought – and tough enough to handle actual use, not just carpark kerbs.

Agile Offroad Underbody Protection

1

The Grenadier’s undercarriage is solid, but it’s still vulnerable in rocky or remote terrain. This full skid plate kit from Agile Offroad replaces the factory guards with thicker, more comprehensive protection – covering your engine sump, gearbox, transfer case and fuel tank.

Made from high-grade aluminium, it’s strong without adding excessive weight, and designed to shed impacts rather than catch on obstacles. It bolts to existing mounts, so no cutting or welding needed. A proper investment if you’re heading into unknown country or just want peace of mind on remote tracks.

KAON Internal Side MOLLE Panels

1

These Australian-made MOLLE panels bolt directly to the inside of the Grenadier’s rear cabin area, turning unused wall space into modular storage for tools, recovery gear, first-aid kits or spares. The laser-cut steel frame is powder-coated and designed to avoid rattles, even when loaded.

You can clip on pre-made pouches or build out your own system depending on your setup. Keeps your gear out of footwells and off the floor, but still easy to grab when you need it. Perfect for anyone building out a tidy touring interior or remote response vehicle.
