I think you might have that backwards. I would think you have a 44 in the back, and a 30 in the front. From what I've seen, that's the most common for X's and Sahara's. Rubicon's have a 44 in the front and back.

How do we find out? May sound stupid. I'm looking to buy new covers and would really hate to buy some and have to exchange. I have an 07 X unlimited.

If you have an X or Sahara, you have the 30 up front and the 44 in the rear.

Rubi's have 44' both front and rear....

You need to be sure by looking at your vehicles configuration sheet.
