X/Rubi spec comparison?
I was just doing a side by side comparison of an X and Rubicon. Is the X really 9 inches wider than the Rubicon?? That's what the Jeep website says, 9 inches wider for the X, but it offers only the same hip and shoulder. :thinking:

Holy Widening behemouths Batman.... You're right.:yup:
Track - Front 61.9 61.9 Track - Rear 61.9 61.9 Overall Width 82.8 73.9 I dunno dude......:dontknow2: wierd. |
lol, I'm going to have to call typo on that one
|
Not to hijack, but also what accounts for the inch or so difference in ground clearance bewteen the X and the Rubi? Is that just from the larger tires on the Rubicon?

And even wierder still, the X has about an inch shorter rear overhang. So given similar size tires and springs that the X would have a larger angle of descent? :thinking::what?:

I don't have a Rubi or an X, but I would have to think the only difference would be ground clearance which would also increase OAH. I have a Sahara and before I bought it I had the salesman park it right next to a Rubi And I measured everywhere I could and they were the same.:yup:

I have a 4 door X with stock 255/75R17's Goodyear SRA's. These measure 32 inches. I have compared my X to a Rubi on the dealers lot. Level ground, side by side. They are the same width. The numbers posted must be a typo. The Rubi BFG MT's, even though the same 255/75R17 size as the SRA's actually measure a little larger than the SRA. As much as 1/2 inch.
I was comparing to a soft top Rubi. My X is a hard top. Bumper height was the same. I would say spring height must be the same. I understand the Rubi has a different shock. My stock shocks work very well. In the end, width is the same. Height will be determined by model and accessory package. |
