Nope, you will need a new front carrier. Also, some of the early 07's came with a d35 in the rear. If you look hard enough, you can find gears on sale, and probably get the whole thing done parts and labor for about $1100.00 Also, depending on tire size, you will want to go higher than 4.10's. Search the forum and you will find the chart to give you a good starting point.

Do yourself a favour and see if you can back out of whatever you just bought because Rubicons come with Dana 44 fronts axles, and unless you have a Dana 44 front on your X (most likely you have a Dana 30) you cannot put a Rubicon front 44 4.10 into an X front Dana 30. You require a JK specific Dana 30 front 4.10 ring and pinion and JK specific rear Dana 44 4.10 ring and pinion (unless as mentioned you may on the outside chance have a D35 rear, I doubt it)
Before you jump into something like this do some more reasearch or ask someone who knows.
