On a Sport/Sahara you get the M220 D44 if you have the Anti-Spin option. M200 gets replaced
Do you have the Anti-Spin Option(LSD)?
Unfortunately I don't
The M200 is such a new axle. We don't know much about durability. Hopefully it hold up to 37's
It is new and only time will tell but my budget for new axles is in the works. In the meantime they will be fine for what I'm doing. I don't know about you but I'm not doing much crawling in Fl.
I have a 6 speed 2 door sport with D44 and 35's. It was a dog with the stock gears, 6th gear was useless unless you were going down hill on the interstate. I went with 488's within a couple of weeks and it is fantastic with the 35's. I had 488's on my JK with 33's so I had already planned to go at least 488 on the JL. I use 6th gear all the time now and it has a little pep back. Crawling in 4lo is great with this setup and it still averages 18-19 mpg.
Awesome information! I will keep this in mind as I start my build thank you for your input!
Got the Oracle halos myself love themI have the RC 3.5" coil lift with upgraded control arms and the modified front drive shaft. I am pretty sure it is a similar lift height to the Mopar 2" (3.5" for non-Rubicons). I would for sure go with 37s, no matter what. I barely rub at full turn with some good force coming out of a driveway or on a rock, and on one corner only. I have not gotten to full articulation, but I know it would hit somewhere I'm sure w/out upgrading my fenders (planned).
Here's some various pics to show the height and clearance - the pic on dirt was aired down to ~16psi.
I don't know the offset of my wheels, but I think it's really low, maybe -44ish, as my tires stick out past the fenders about 3-4".
I bought some rubicon take off axles and 37’s. Unfortunately after the deal was make the shipping didn’t work out so now I have 37’s and my stock axles. At this point I think I’ll throw the 37’s on and see what happens. If it breaks maybe get the UD44. Or if I win MetalCloak’s giveaway this month get the UD44 before the m186 breaks
I am interested to see how the m186 holds up though since the ring gear is bigger than the d30 and the gears are cut different.
damn that sucks about the rubi axles, id love to find a set also.I bought some rubicon take off axles and 37’s.

Yeah this may be the path I take now. I’m sure it can do it being easy but if it popped I wouldn’t be surprised.
