Do AT tires include a bigger rear axle?

I ordered my JLU sport s in march, and I'm looking at my order sheet and realize that I ordered all-terrain tires. Does that mean I also get a larger rear axle? Just curious. I forgot that I ordered the upgraded tires. Thanks in advance!

I believe if you get the LSD, you get the larger rear axle plus all terrain tires.

It doesn't look like it according to the order guide. Also, when you say larger there are 2 ways the axle changes. Getting the LSD gets you the larger M220 sized rear differential but keeps the same axle width as the Dana 35 (M200?) rear. Only Rubicons get the wider axles. Wider axles help with larger tire sizes. I'm not sure what your intent is for building. Even with the M220 rear, it will still be stronger than the normal axle.

I really don't plan on going any bigger than 33s down the road. It's my daily driver, so I will stay on the smaller side.

If it has the diesel option, does the front get the Dana 44?

The Cold Weather Group will get you ATs. The Selec-Trac and/or the LSD will get you the rear D44.
