Ordering a JKU sport--option question
I'm ordering an auto JKU sport with the S package. I wondering what the advantage of the limited slip rear and the 3:73 gears would have if any. They are relatively low cost options if theres a real advantage to having them. Would there be a noticable difference over the 3:21's and no LS rear?

Yes!!! Jk do have computer controlled brake locking differential but LSD is a huge helper in snow and sand... Gear ratio number, higher the better for towing and crawling. If you plan on upgrading to lockers and higher gear then don't bother. Its cheap factory options I wish I had for now... Enjoy your new Jeep

I got the EVIC on my Sport only because it was included on the Jeep I bought. I didn't order it that way and it wasn't something I was looking for. That said, I'm glad I have it and I made sure that my wife's Patriot, that we are picking up on Wednesday, comes with it. It's a handy option to have.
