Replacing axles with rubicon ones

[Stolar13]

Hi I bought My Rubicon axles. Looks nice. Now I'm waiting for Jeep and go to the work.
I have the complete with control arms, swaybar, brakes.

I still thinking about instalation of Swaybar from Rubicon and how can I do the wire instalation, in front axle there is no connector to lockers, I need to buy it.

It is true that in Europe version Rubicon the brakes are Higher than Sport S USA?

If I install Swaybar from Rubicon, Have I space to install winch under original Sport version Bumper?

I'm planning to use them, and it was mentioned that you need a special wiring harness. Haven't searched for it yet.

Very good..... Everything is plug&play?

Is it true that Rubicon axle is wider?

Hello, I have question about replacing axle
On the axle there is same instrument where I need to plug the connector to the right side. In M186 there is other connector than in M210, the color of wire is other. How I need to connect this wire, wchich color to which color.
As I think it give me the problem with speedometer, and other bugs like ESP, Engine, brake, 4wd service and 4wd doesn't work.

Hello I changed the axles to Rubicons and everything are plag&play but I have one painpoint, it is ABS sensor. It were connect with no problem, but I have bug in ABS module C0031-4A C0034-4A C0037-4A C003A-4A that I instal incorrect component - sensor of ABS/odometer. I try to change it with sensor from SPORT axle but it is diffrent sizes. That from Rubicon axle are the biggest as that from SPORT
I have much more bugs as ABS,ESP, 4WD, Check engine but I think it is due to ABS sensor problem. The odometer doesn't work too.
Can you help me? SOmbody had that problem?

With my swap I used my sport ABS sensors with no issues. Maybe the sensor itself got damaged or its dirty. Also check that the wire is whole and didn't get damaged. The Rear ABS sensors are bigger than the fronts so its not interchangeable that way.

Do you have a tazer? Have you had the computer flashed to show new gearing?

That could be the issue too!

I try to change rear to rear and they are different.
Maybe European axle has other ABS sensor, I don't know where I can check it.

I check the modules by AppCar DiagFCA Soft, but I think It check only bugs.
I change the gear ratio in this soft only. Change from 3.45 to 3,73.
It is possible do it in this Soft?

I dont know how European models are different and have never heard of AppCar DiagFCA. I used a Tazer and cleared codes and changed gearing to 4.10.

Why did you change gearing to 3.73? Do European rubi axles not have 4.10 gearing? I think the diesel rubicon is the only rubicon that has stock 3.73 gearing...the U.S. Rubicon with 3.6 and 2.0 motors comes with 4.10 gearing.

I try to go to service to do this flash by other specialistics Soft.
I have Axle from European 2,2 diesel Wrangler JL
In start of this thread there is table that Diesel Rubicon in european have 3,73 gearing. I try to check gearing manualy then I know it perfectly and then change it in Car, Maybe it generate bug.
