So as the title states my wife has been talking about it for a while and I have been somewhat avoiding it but I have finally found an upside to this. My wife wants a jeep, great, but this could be beneficial to me. Here's what I got, wanna see if this would even work:
So I have a 2013 unlimited sport auto with 3.21 gears. Recently lifted and 35's added (loss of power not as bad as I would have thought) I have recently been looking at buying D44's, front and rear, off a Rubicon that I found for a decent deal, I have decided that going up anymore in tire size will probably never happen so 44's and 4.10s I think would be plenty for my driving. (95% pavement, and no real major hills).
My wife has only a few stipulations to what she wants: it has to be a 2 door, auto. That's about it. She wants a little lift with maybe 33's or 285s (her words were "a little lift with a little bigger tires" so I'm thinking a simple spacer lift and maybe 285s). Anyway, being the loving husband I am I thought about getting her a 2 door Rubicon and just swapping the axles from her Rubicon to my Sport. She's already said she could care less but I want to make sure this would actually work. I just don't know if the 2 door and 4 door axles are somehow different.
Thanks in advance for the help.
