Stock JK Tech Bulletin board forum regarding issues with OE (original equipment) components of the Jeep JK Wrangler (Rubicon, Sahara, Unlimited and X) such as factory suspension parts, engine, transmission, body parts, interior fixtures and the on-board computer.

Is a Sahara any better than a base model?

quote My X has the same ground clearance as a Rubicon, which is only slightly greater than the Sahara.

How can x have same clearance as a sahara when sahara has the best stock ground clearance even better than rubicons
X comes with 28" tires
sahara 32.1"
rubicon 32.05"
sahara by a 1/4"

power windows/locks
security alarm
better quality stain resistant seat fabric
1 year of sirius
HD suspension w/gas shocks
keyless entry
hood insulation
Infinity sound system


the only thing my X does not have is hood insulation

Yup, most people don't realize this. The Saharas have the largest stock tire size

You don't have the Yes Essentials Seat fabric. Which really is nice. Mine haven't stained at all and I love the anti-static feature.
