Has the Jeep Rubicon replaced the Jeep Wrangler or does Rubicon indicate a special 4X4 upgrade package available on Wranglers? If it is just a package, what are the upgrades?

Some cool stuff about the Rubicon:



Comes with Dana 44 axles front and rear (stronger than standard Jeep axles)



Both front and rear axles come with air lockers. This means that when locked in, all 4 wheels are spinning versus only 2 as in regular 4 wheel drive.



The transfercase is 4:1 low range. Combined with the 4.11 gears in the axles, it makes for a really low geared Jeep. I can put mine in and walk beside it while it puts down the road by itself.



Also comes standard with 31" Goodyear MT tires, rocker panel protection, tow hooks and fog lights.

i know maximum ppl will disagree and delivers me thumbs down, yet listen ME OUT. at the initiating, i'm a Jeeper, having a 'ninety 9 Grand Cherokee Laredo and a 'ninety 9 Wrangler interest. both have the lengthy-lasting 4.0L I-6, and both one for sure have 4 wheel drive. I agree the Rubicon has the finest 4x4 gadget, yet at the same time as it includes the previously fashions (except the CJs), I a lot fairly want the Grand Cherokee's 4x4. Why? The Wrangler's gadget purely has 2HI, 4HI, and 4LO. you may't use both 4 wheel drive gears on dry pavement. at the same time as off-roading, I commonly use 4HI because i do not do any hardcore stuff, even if both 4HI and 4LO spin all 4 wheels jointly, except you've lockers, which i do not. So if I were given a million wheel stuck thoroughly in airborne dirt and dust, after I boost up, that wheel spins as quickly because the others no matter if it has no decide on. The Grand Cherokee hoewever, (Laredo, no longer constrained) has an similar thoughts because the Wrangler, (4HI is termed 4 area Time), even if it also has 4 finished Time that is between the finest available, for my area. that is the gadget you should use on dry pavement, in case you decide on on, yet that is the better area. If i'm again in that situation with a million wheel stuck in airborne dirt and dust, that one will spin slowly or by no ability, at the same time as the torque is transfered to the different 3. All 4 wheels can spin at different speeds w/ different volume of torque, no lockers needed. I a lot fairly want the Wrangler effortless, exceedingly in off-roading, yet a 4 finished Time determination contained in the Wrangler would definitly help.
