  • Skid Plates

    • /shared/2012/wrangler/capability/offroad/primary/10_j_w2d_cap_off_skidplates_prm.jpg

      Skid plates protect the underside of your vehicle from off-road rocks and on-road debris. Front suspension and drivetrain plates are constructed of 3-mm thick stamped steel, and include: an automatic transmission skid bar (not shown) that protects the transmission oil pan; a transfer case skid plate and a fuel tank skid plate.

  • Solid Front & Rear Axles

    • /shared/2012/wrangler/capability/offroad/primary/10_j_w2d_cap_off_solidfrontaxle_prm.jpg

      Wrangler's solid axles feature added durability and articulation, thanks to a large driveshaft, stiff housing, larger pinion bearing and above-center pinion mounting. Tough axles and drivetrain. To increase structural stiffness and effectively double the sealing capability, the NV241 GII and NV241 OR transfer cases use 18 bolts.

  • Suspension

    • /shared/2012/wrangler/capability/offroad/primary/10_j_w2d_cap_off_suspension_prm.jpg

      Solid axles with locating arms, coil springs, track / stabilizer bars, front steering damper and high-pressure gas-charged shock absorbers toughen this suspension.

  • Driveshaft

    • /shared/2012/wrangler/capability/offroad/primary/10_j_w2d_cap_off_driveshafts_prm.jpg

      Wrangler’s axle shafts appropriately handle the high torque (using a large 1250 series joint). Driveshafts are harmonically quieter, thanks to bending stiffness and precise balancing.

  • Body-on-Frame

    • /shared/2012/wrangler/capability/offroad/primary/10_j_w2d_cap_off_bodyonframe_prm.jpg

      Wrangler’s Body-on-Frame chassis design is fully boxed for added strength, stiffness and durability.

  • Crawl Ratios
    Crawl Ratios

    Rubicon has an incredible 73.3:1 crawl ratio, allowing for a controlled 0.5 mph cruise up or down the rocks. High crawl ratios keep you slow for more control on the rock.

    The crawl ratio is the combined first gear x low range x axle ratio. The higher the number, the slower the vehicle will go. And driving slowly is the key to successful off-road driving, especially over rocks and rugged terrain. You’ll be able to see what you are driving over and tiptoe over obstacles with controlled authority.
