EU / Australia VS US Spec Rubicon axles (Width/thickness)

[intentsrig]

Do the EU/ Aussie spec Rubicon's have the wide track axle? I have seen EU guys talk about not having the wide track axle but instead a narrow 44. Pretty sure dana spicer also sells shafts for a factory E locking narrow 44. Anyone have a link to any kind of source for this info.

Lastly, do the axle tubes across ALL models (minus the mojave?) have the same thickness. Way too much hearsay on the internet. Can anyone actually provide documentation? Jeep Australia website just lists HD 44 for all models.

No idea about the axle tube thickness though

Nice thanks for the picture. Interesting so maybe it’s just EU jeeps? Maybe it was just the JL and all JT rubicons are wide US version.

I swore Dan from the road chose me made a comment about axle width on his gladiator but I can’t find it for the life of me.

Your guys different states have different rules right? Wouldn’t make sense for jeep to import two different rubicon variations though.

HI @intentsrig

I'm sure only one JTR version came over here, Jeep doesn't have a big enough footprint in the market over here to have imported more than 1 version of JTR, we don't even get a shot at the Mohave or the diesels (due to emissions standards I believe)
Our state regulation differences are more about modification than anything else, but to be honest that is all slowly coming into line anyway.

My understanding, from all the posts I've read, is that the thickness is the same on all of them. The biggest difference is the width, with variations for the LSD and Lockers.
