TRACTION

Traction is all about transferring engine power to the ground. Once in 4x4 High, the transfer case delivers a 50/50 split of torque to the front and rear axles, delivering that extraordinary traction that has made Jeep® Wrangler a legendary 4x4 machine.

WATER FORDING

With a high air intake, sealed electrical connections and moisture-resistant body openings, you can traverse up to 33.5 inches of water to cross creeks, streams and puddles with ease.

MANEUVERABILITY

Easily maneuver tight, treacherous trails or navigate around rocks or fallen logs with precision steering systems and high-performance wheelbases.

ARTICULATION

Good suspension and axle articulation help keep your wheels on the ground, allowing for maximum traction while going over obstacles.

GROUND CLEARANCE

Drive over logs, rocks or just about anything else on the trail, thanks to exceptional ground clearance and protective underbody skid plates.

OWN THE TERRAIN

The Rubicon grips the ground with ample power thanks to beefy 33-inch all-terrain tires or available 35-inch all-terrain tires. They offer a larger surface area than regular tires for maximum traction and control off-road.

AT YOUR SIDE

Rock rails add protection and increase off-road maneuverability over rugged terrain. Winch-capable steel bumpers have removable endcaps so you can push the limits with radical off-road adventures.

CRAWL WITH CONFIDENCE

With a 4:1 low gear ratio, the Rock-Trac®-equipped Rubicon can deliver an available Best-in-Class 100:1 crawl ratio when equipped with the manual transmission and the available 4.88:1 axle ratio.

BREAK THE BOUNDARIES

The Electronic Sway Bar Disconnect system on Rubicon models remotely disconnects your sway bar so the front wheels can drop and compress, improving suspension articulation on tough terrain.

LOCK ‘EM UP

Power can be misapplied when rock crawling, causing the wrong wheels to spin. Front and rear Tru-Lok® electronic locking differentials lock and evenly distribute power for impressive traction.
