Axle swap to JL rubicon with 4.10

[Trentgroth]

Are JT and JL axles the same? I know the JT has bigger brakes. I have a JT and looking at a set of JL Rubicon takeoffs to put under it. I want the gears and lockers. I have a 3.0L JT on 37’s and 4.10 gears with lockers would be a nice addition.

There‘s a guy on Facebook out of Montana selling a set of JT diesel Rubicon take-offs for $3500 or about. I was set to buy them but bought a Rubicon instead.

If I find the link I’ll post it up.

EDIT - he sold them

I saw those but the problem is they are off the diesel, so the have 3.73 gears. I am trying to get the 4.10’s

The front axle is the same on the JT and JL. Not sure about the rears. I would guess the rears are different due to the Gladiator having the truck bed and more weight capacity in the rear. I put Gladiator Rubicon axles on mine and spend much more time in 8th when on the freeway.

I did the exact same thing and although i wanted lockers and the 4.10 was a great bonus, it is definitely got a giddy up with stock high alt tires. The shock mount points are vvery diffrent from the JL

I am upgrading my JT Rubicon to Fabricated 9 axles. I’ll be selling the take offs with brakes and steering and elect Swaybar, wheels and and maybe more. Message me if you’re interested. I’m in southern CA,
