ULTRA RUBICON.
Sponsored
All great pointsI agree, All Jeep had to do was slap some 35s on a Rubicon to beat out the Sasquatch after all that’s all Ford did for a Sasquatch to beat out the Rubicon with stock 32s specs. Lol
I say they did the right thing. A little lift to give a bit more room, and a little bumpstop so the tires don’t rub at full stuff. They already had the better HD axle from the 392/Mojave, why not insure that it’s strong enough for 35s instead of hearing people whine that the factory axle can’t handle 35s. They did the same D44 upgrade with the JKU Recon. At the end of the day Nobody is forcing you to buy an XR it’s your choice. If they make that a part of the Rubicon pkg the base price goes up yet another $4k and no one has the choice.
Again, If someone is gonna buy aftermarket axels anyway, why would you pay an extra $20k for a Rubicon just to replace all the parts that make it a Rubicon.
