I've drive a new rubicon an comparing it to my 3.8 I really don't notice a huge difference. An both are 6spd. At least for me cause if it was such a massive difference I would of bought a new one but couldn't see dropping that kinda money for a minimal gain.

If it were me I would def supercharger the 3.6

I don't see any gears or lockers on that list of yours???

Still in the works.....trying to decide wether to build up my D30/d44 or to buy the built up D44's with 4.88 or 5.13 gears....

Semper Fi to both of you then! Had a great time over there. Have you made it to Emerald Beach (where they had the world fair) or toured the tunnels yet?

some of the smittybilt stuff is a little hit or miss but for the 300+ dollars you save over the comprditors next closest thing i dont mind busting out the grinder for an hour or so to make it fix exactly how i want. Its a trade off. if you want somthing that fits exact always the first time spend more and get the other brand. if you dont mind spending some time to make it fit perfect get smitty and save some money at the cost of a little fitment time.
