Default G2 vs Pro-rock 44 front axle

O I was looking for a front rubicon front axle but decided to just bite the bullet and buy a new 44. What is the big difference between the PR44 and g2 44. The G2 seems a lot cheaper, is the PR44 that much better. Pro and cons of both or either? Any suggestions would be great.

Default Good question

I've been looking the same thing..............also Currie has a front 44 that I've seen. I wanted to know who's better.

Ive got an 11 that I'm scheduling a BDS 4.5 SA. I was going to put in 4.88's and 35s until I get a new front, then go up to 37's and 5.13's

I don't think G2 makes a front 44 for the JK. Tjey are available for the older Jeeps. I heard they were working on one but not out yet. They do have front and rear 60s for the JK. I have them and have been great

That's weird. 2 weeks ago I saw them on 4wd.com and that's how I got interested, I just went back on their and now they changed that section on their website and don't list one. That's crazy. Hmmmmm

With the lift that you are installing a advantage for the PR44 is it's availabilty of the PR44 Unlimited. It is designed for a lifted JK giving you Castor and Pinion angle adjustment. Most aftermarket axles are based on the stock measurements.

Add it up.

Rubi axle + gearing + gussets + sleeves + cutting/turning the c's + alloys + upgraded brackets + whatever i forgot.

PR44 + nothing


Add it all up, and the rubi costs as much as the pr44, and is still a weak factory housing.
