I have an 07 x with factory 4.10s.

There also were Dana 35s in the rear of a very small number of the very first JKs.

The 4.10 in an x was only an option in the first couple years. As well as adding rear locker and such.

Too funny bro

My bad fellas on the d35 error. I am going to dig into this tomorrow when im back to the plant and have better info for you. Ive been off couple days for new furnace and a/c install. The only d44s that are factory installed are only on Rubicons and Rubicon X. My apologies for any mis info. I will post again tomorrow with better info.

Hell, for the guys that got Sport/Sahara models with the max tow package did they actually get 3.73 gears or did they also get schlonged with 3.21's? lol I wonder how many of these Rubi buyers have actually bothered checking lol


I'm gonna have to check my 15 Sahara here in a little bit because I've been courious about the way it runs. Build sheet shows 3.21 but I don't run like people describe those gears. Maybe I got lucky and they put 3.73s in mine!!!!
