    Shopping for a Rubicon

    I see I am not the only one that got Flamed by wayalife, D-Bags for the very reasons above and I had just asked the question. And the group has it out for the founders of this group here.And that is part of the reason I checked out Overland Bound, and found a really great group of people here...

    Shopping for a Rubicon

    Metalcloak lifts are nice, but you don't need a 3.5 lift unless you plan on doing the trails I mention before. You will find (as you said you are getting older) that climbing in an out of that high of a lift gets tedious, especially for a DD. It's funny that even stoney went to 4.56 for the 35s...

    Shopping for a Rubicon

    2 1/2 lift is ideal, as said above it keeps you from a lot of problems, stress on the drivetrain components. Bump stops and a way to adjust your front lower control arms for alignment to get your caster back. This also keeps you away from the infamous "Death Wobble"

    That is one thing about Wranglers, you would be better off with new and know you are not getting someone else's problem and there isn't much of a price difference, especially, with better financing rates on new...

    Shopping for a Rubicon

    The Rubi owners are stout lot, but with just a locker in the rear, I have made it everywhere most of the ones here in low Cal go. I don't abuse my rig, and have a 30 in the front. As said above if you know how to drive you can do many things. I don't drive a Jeep that is just this side of a...

    Shopping for a Rubicon

    I am pointing out is the Rubi worth the difference? You will still have to lift, Wheels ,tires, Etc ,Etc... Before you pull the trigger check out the Wrangler Forum, You will find even the Rubi drivers end up regearing , 4.56 to 5.10 to even higher numbers. It is a matter of pick your poison...

    Shopping for a Rubicon

    Ask yourself do you need a Rubi, or can you build up a sport. If you were to leave it alone, the Rubi. But if you are talking 35's ,a lift, a regear, a Sport will work fine. And the guys going on about 30/44 to 44/44 better yet 60/60, are crawlers and have been sold on it, AKA as Way--Life D...
