Did the fix the oil on or does it still hang super low? Last 392 I looked at the drain plug was almost level with the front axle tube. That just screams serious damage to me.
The older 392's have a cast aluminum oil pan with the drain plug pointed down. My 2021-10 build has a black stamped steel oil pan with the drain plug on a vertical section. I'll have to go check to see how low the pan hangs vs the front axle.

Is that decal on the bottom of the doors stock?

Enough with the picts already. I’m already about to replace the new 33’s with 35’s which of course I wouldn’t want to mount on the narrow 7.5 in wheels. Next I will be unhappy with the gearing. This could really snowball! (I’m good at it) you guys are gonna cost me a bunch of money

Yes, that is the factory "lower decal" option. I didn't custom order my 392XR so it was an option the dealer picked. I would have not chosen it myself if doing a custom spec but since I was only able to negotiate DOWN to the sticker price I've paid for it. I feel that I should keep it on for enough days to determine that I truly despise it enough to take it off.

The 2.0 will be dumped by the end of 2022. Maybe.
It’s interesting you predict this. I got the 2.0 because I live at elevation in CO. I understand the boosted motor is better at elevation and I have to assume a lot of others got it for the same reason.

What is up with the front axle on 392 XRs.. Does it still have the FAD just disabled (or is it a solid longer axle shaft with no sleeve).. Is it the same axle housing as regular XRs? Do non 392 XRs have the same front axle as a regular Rubicon? Is it the same front axle as non XR 392s?
