Ordering new Rubicon Tuesday. 2012 owners , let me hear your 2 bits....
Was dealing on last Arctic in existence up here.. not going to happen. Have decided to order new Rucbicon.
Oredering do I can get just what I want. Going with White with white roof. Leather .
Do some mild offroading that goes along with the camping and snowmobiling. Will pull 2 sleds and in summer two Seadoos.
was going with 3:73s. Please give me any feedback our suggestions on any likes/dislikes on order items prior to signing off on it.
Thanks

Get some ACE sliders as a lot have
Most go aftermarket for wheels/tires so plenty of factory available cheap
Of the three trim levels, Rubicon has the lowest % of initial purchase "resale value" with Sport being the highest (everyone assumes Rubicons have been beat on)
Dana 30 is plenty strong for "mild offroading"
FYI - the Arctic model is just a Sahara with black wheels and MTs.

Edge hawk is right. I have a rubi auto with 4.10. Drives better with 35 s than it did with 32s. If i wasn't lifting ans doing 35s i would get 3.73.
