2012 Rubicon Gear Ratio
#12
I was in the same situation and had the parts department print out my build sheet. The window sticker did not mention a gear ratio.
I have a 2012 2dr Rubicon with a manual transmission.

Same thing happened to me. I was talking with the salesman and mentioned that one of the reasons I wanted a Rubi was for the 4.10 gearing (having an '07 with the 3.8, I thought this was a necessity). I was also under the impressions that the Rubi's still came with them standard. Well, it was my fault, but I didn't double check, and ended up with 3.73s (automatic).
Thing is, I had it lifted and put 35's on before I even realized they weren't 4.10s. Now with 10k plus on it, several local wheeling trips and a week in Colorado, I'm glad I have the 3.73s. With the new engine and auto tranny, they give me plenty of low end and I still get the better gas mileage.

This thread worried me to death that maybe my 11 Rubicon didn't have the 410 ratio that I thought I bought but I emailed Chrysler & in about an hr they emailed me my build sheet and the front & rear both had them. Thank goodness
