Making JKU Sport into JKUR

[mitchdish]

I've had my JKU Sport for over two years now and I want to make it a Rubicon model without trading it in. What would I need to upgrade in order to make my Sport into a Rubicon?

 

[olram30]

Axles, transfer case, sway bar disco, rock rails and a sticker on the hood

 

[MR.Ty]

Front axle, transfer case, locker. I wouldn't do the sway bar disconnect. Just get some jks quick discos. On another note. Why not trade it in? Oh and yhe 4.10 axle gears

Why not trade it in?

This was the first vehicle I purchased. I am trying to hold on to it as long as I can.

 

[mitchdish]

Does anyone have any recommendations on any of these parts?

Lol I said the same thing about my 09 JKU. Then well....

As far as parts. EBay and Craig's list are your best bet. Here in the "for sale section too.

Just don't do like "others" that add everything except front axle D44, transfer case, locker, 4.10, sway bar disconnect and call it better than a Rubicon.

The Rubicons also have different axle gearing (4.10) so you will need to re-gear as well

If you trade is cheaper in a way, cause you can get a new 2014 rubicon X

You must have never used your edisco to say that. My edisco is probably the best thing I've done and I only have the no limits.

Agreed. Maybe it's laziness, but I would get sick of manually connecting and disconnecting each side. I know I would forget all of the time.
