Default $1400 Rubi front axle?

I see that mopar is offering the rubi front axle for $1400. Everyone seems to agree that this is a steal.

Is it true? Is it available for $1,400?
Is it complete and ready to bolt on and plug in? Complete with innards and roters?

Where did you get one?

I got in an accident and need to replace mine. I see Wyckoff has it for $1430 something, and a collision shop tells me one is not availabe as a complete assembly. Just trying to verify and Wyckoff is closed.\

Thanks!

I bought the mopar D44s from 4wd. I got both front and rear. They are fully bolt in. Came with everything needed - even brakes. You won't need to swap anything from the old one. Great price for a great product.

yeah, the mopar JK dana 44 is a complete, ready to bolt on axle. it comes with the locker, discs, clappiers, etc. all it needs is to be bolted in and some wheels put on.


quadratec has them for a little more... http://www.quadratec.com/products/52446_101_T.htm

It looks like there is going to be a change. I tried to order a front from my dealer and was told that the part # is changing to p5155252. It will be without brakes and calipers. So it should be cheaper.

$1400 is about what they have been for a while.

Thanks guys!! I am seeing them at $1600 at 4wd and $1630 at Quadratec. Did the price go up or am I missing a discount that I should know about?

Otherwise, if Wyckoff still has them for $1432, that may be my route.

When I bought mine from Screamin Lizard they told me that the price was about to go up to $1600.

They probably put the price up so when they start selling them without the rotors and whatnot they can drop the price back to $1400.
