hey i am interested in swapping out my stock x tcase for a rubi case and the place im looking at has one but cannot tell me if its a rubi case or not

i call the dealer with the vin that the tcase is comming out of and they still didnt know which was the rubicon t case or not

wondering if anyone could help me figure this out and tell me what i am looking for ??

thanks!

 

Looks like 6th DIGIT should be a 6 for a RUBI ...

 

ok are u 100 percent sure
is there anyother way to figure this out?

 

My X has a 2 in 6th position so it matches info on this site ...

You could ask Guinness. He did the same swap. I think they shipped him the Xcase twice before getting the Rubi case. I am sure he knows exactly what the number should be.

 

Couldn't you mechanically test it, similar to how you figure out what gearing you have? Engage 4-lo in the tc, then turn the input shaft and count the turns of the output shafts? Should be 4:1 for rubi? 2.somethin for non-rubi?

Just a thought?

 

daveysjeeps.com

has a ruby case for $1200. I can get it shipped for you

 

common sense

 

yeah if you drive an automatin the rubicrawler might be your best bet

 

ive seen rubi cases for under 700 look on car-parts.kom and see what is listed. I think the only difference between the rubi case and the x is the planetary gears. I am looking into it. If it is then maybe a resonable cost to get them from the dealer.
