Rubicon or not shouldn't make that much of a difference. I was quoted between $1600-$1800 for 4.88 gears in Charlotte, NC area in my Max tow. Don't see how the Rubicon would make a $1200 difference, I got a Max Tow so we got the same wide Axles and 4.10 gears.
Is that for just labor or parts and labor for both axles?

Not for $4k and factory warranty.
The value seems over the top of the package for beadlocks, lift and tires alone. How wide are the rims ? 8.5? I know the tires are a bit small and skinny compared to a 35x12.5 trail grappler but regardless this is a good package for anyone who will leave it at that. I feel like it’s mostly for looks though as you can mount a 37 or 38 on there. The fender flares are funny but good to have them available for cheap.also curious what the 1.5inch lift entails

If I read it correctly it says you can get 4.88 on a V8 Manual Transmission. I don’t think that is even an option. I thought all 392s were Automatic Transmissions only. If that really is the case take my money but I don’t see it being true. The validity of this article come into question now.

Back to original topic though, I would pay the money for the package at the price on a JTR for a small lift, gears, wheels, tires and the warranty.

The gears are different, I believe 4.56 for auto and 4.88 for 5 speed, wheels are 8” wide with the package.
