Rubicon vs Mojave Photos

[tarndesigns]

So...here's some follow-up pics from my earlier post. The first post shows my stock Mojave sitting next to my buddies Rubicon with a 2" Mopar lift and stock 33" Falken M/Ts.

These pics show my stock Mojave next to the same Rubicon but now with the 2" Mopar lift and 35" BFG KO2s (I think I got the tire right - they are for sure BFG 35"s). Regardless, you can really see the difference a lift and tires makes for ride height. The Rubi still has a bit of front end rake but the owner likes it that way - the result is it appears to be a bit higher in the rear than the front.

I think it looks really good. Surprising how much larger the Rubi looks in the fourth pic - likely just perspective but, Wow...it really seems to dwarf the Mojave.

What do you guys think?

Where did you get the orange jeep stickers for the wheels?

Yep...that's it. Was typing on my phone and missed the "s"...

This website has the little jeeps same size as on the Rubicon wheels. I had mine on for three years and they proved very durable, even through automated car washes. Highly recommend.

Here’s what I have. Regular orange. Smallest size.

Look what I found on Etsy:

I bet the Rubicon was made before the Mojave. Having that extra time to grow made it just a little bit taller!

Mojave is just a tad bit sexier.

These are great pictures! I just acquired a 2025 Mojave myself and love it. I am curious to the diehard Jeep drivers - is the Rubicon considered a more "off roading" jeep? The Mojave I have has the Fox shocks and love the extra towing capacity. Feels extremely rugged so just curious what the big difference between Rubicon/Mojave is from a owners perspective.

As a Mojave owner I can say the Rubicon as it comes from the factory is a “more off-roading Jeep ” due to disconnecting sway bar , front locker, higher tow rating and lower geared transfer case. Might be more capable than any brand truck out there!
The Mojave is a heck of a capable truck and rides better than Rubicon , but you can’t make up for a missing front locker and sway disconnect comparing factory to factory. I compared and went Mojave and am very happy….Jack

Depends on your driving style or use. I went for the beefier frame, cast iron knuckles, sexy hood, better-looking interior color accents (I don't like the red). Here is a link for you. Jeep JT Gladiator Mojave vs Gladiator Rubicon: What’s the Difference?

Perspective matters.

I'll try to provide some.

A stock Wrangler Sport will go 99% of places 99% of owners are willing to drive it straight off the showroom floor. Add good tires and it will go 100% of places 99% of owners are willing to drive it straight off the showroom floor.

The average consumer buying these packages is basing their purchase on looks, price, feel, the color combo... The typical strong independent woman driving a JLU or JT cannot tell you a single non-visual difference between a Willys/Sport/Mojave/Rubicon/Moab/High Tide.

And since 3/4 of them will never see any trail of any level, it really doesn't matter.

But, Rubicons have, over a Mojave, a 4:1 low range, a front locker, and a disconnecting swaybar. What the trail looks like, that a Rubicon makes it down, that a Mojave doesn't, is really unknown. No one can seem to point to that.

But, point by point, those things make a Rubicon "more offroad"
