All depends on what the end goal is and how you plan to get there. Rubicon is worth it for the parts it includes... if you plan on 37’s and will wheel it on more than dirt roads. If the plan is to use it for daily driver and some leaf looker trails... Rubicon isn’t needed.If the plan is to put tons and 40’s there’s no need to buy Rubicon just to take the axles out from underneath it. The hard part is knowing for sure how you’ll eventually use it and the timeline ($$$). I’d say that Rubi makes sense in almost every case for someone that has plans to wheel it — and that doesn’t have immediate plans to go 40’s. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I had to put in HP in front and Dana 44 axle in my old 2005 Jeep x.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Dana 30 is fine for 35" tires. The JKs have beefier axles than the older model jeeps
