To add to this, if you put a Rubicon t-case into your Sport/etc and are using the AEV ProCal, you must enter the
t-case dip switches FIRST.
Then axle/tires.
If not the t-case in 4low will not work and when you go back to 2WD your transmission won't shift.
Ask me how I know. :icon_crazy:

This must be the case only when using the AEV ProCal, I just did this swap and I didn't have to do anything and works flawlessly, I am using a Superchips programmer though, didn't need to use it.

You didn't change the gear ratio?

Not sure what you mean, I didn't change anything in the programming in relationship to the T-case, I also installed a Rubicrawler at the same time and have no issues whatsoever.

To clarify this is on my 2013 Sport Auto.
My buddy did this swap on his 2014 Sport Auto too.
When I got off the trail my JK was running like poop.
He and I stopped and he busted out his cheat sheet e-mail from AEV and they said to do the t-case first (his e-mail had a bunch of options from AEV)

My Superchips programmer doesn't even have that option and mine works fine although it's behind a manual trans.

Yeah, I don't recall seeing an option for that on my Superchips either, never even thought about it, didn't see a need, must be either just the ProCal or the newer JK's.

Mine sure seems to shift fine in 4 lo and even with it in 4hi with the Rubicrawler in 2.72, which would be 4lo normally in a sport or X, it works great and it's been put to the test wheelin hard at Tillamook just last weekend.
Are you confusing the "Rubicrawler" box with the 4.0:1 T-Case found in a Rubicon? Two totally different animals.

Nope, I put in a RockTrac t-case out of a rubicon and a Rubicrawler at the same time, love all the gear choices especially the 2lo 2.72, didn't think I would actually use them but i have used them all even the 10.88 going over an almost vertical drop off.

How old is your procal? They just released the one with the tcase swap a year or so ago. Changes are you just need a newer one. Factory reset yours and sell it abs you won't be far off
