Default Rubicon Transfer case swap

I've got a 2014 jk Sahara 3.6l automatic. What is the part# of the rubicon transfer case that I could buy to swap out with the one I have now? Would I need anything else for the swap?

If you are taking about buying a new rubi case from jeep you are going to be better off both with price and performance with an Atlas case for about $2300
Gives you twin sticks for independent front and rear and you have more choices on gear selection. If looking for a used case Motec in Vagas sells the rubi case for a grand and should be able to hook you up with the correct case.

Dirtman is right. Best "case" scnario is $1500+ shipping for a new Rubi case. Used will be hard to find as the 2012+ auto JKs have a unique input shaft and you can only use one off a 2012+ auto JK. The Atlas is far better. If you can find a used case for $900, then maybe not a bad idea. Or, find someone going to do an engine swap and they may trade you straight up as they usually go to a Sport case (or if Motech has any, it is your case +$500).

Or you could build a Dana 300 with twin sticks and 4:1s for about 1000.
