    '06 Rubicon - need more clearance

    My baby and the best person I know is my '06 Rubicon. :) A while back I put a short-arm suspension lift (3.5") on it (SMH....short-sighted I know) and 35's. Stock, it's a great ride but I wanted to tackle some double diamonds out in Tillamook (Oregon). Problem is the housing on the Dana 44 front...

    Theories why the Rubicon went with D44s vs upgraded Dana 30/35?

    Like the title says. Any theories? It would be exceptional if legitimate proof was provided. Ex being; engineers write up or something similar. But theories are welcome. A lot on here about how the TJ 44 isn't worth the swap (expense:strength return) which I agree with considering only gen 1's...

    Noob here, should I buy a 03 Rubicon or 06 X?

    Hi all, this is my first time posting and I'd appreciate any and all advice! I am a college student and I am looking at getting a TJ as a DD first and for off-roading second. I have done a lot of research on both but I'm still stuck on deciding. From what I learned so far is that it is better...

    Does the TJ / LJ Rubicon have a factory lift over the other models?

    A common question in the TJ / LJ circles is whether or not the Rubicon model has a stock lift versus the non-Rubicon models. The answer is NO, it does not. The only difference in height between the Rubicon model and non-Rubicon models is due to the fact that the Rubicon has slightly larger...

    How to correct speedometer on TJ Rubicon?

    Ummm, I have a TJ (errrr, LJ) Rubicon and I run 33" tires. My speedometer is clearly off by a little bit, but as I understand the Rubicon doesn't have the typical speedometer gear tooth you can easily change out, is this correct? If so, how do I go about re-calibrating my speedo for 33" tires...

It's been a West Coast vehicle it's entire life so there's no rust whatsoever on the underside. I purchased it for 19k from a local dealership where it was a trade in...
