This is ours... 2012 Rubicon Unlimited in Crush orange. Added Level 8 "ZX" 17x9 wheels and Nitto Trail Grappler M/T tires in 295/75R17 ... roughly 33.3" diameter. Have a Rock Krawler 2.5" suspension lift system, Bilstein 5100 shocks, extended stainless steel brake lines, Teraflex exhaust spacer and Coast 1310 front driveshaft on the way. Unfortunately the funky exhaust cross-over on the 2012 models makes it necessary to use either or sometimes both the spacers and the different driveshaft to clear both the exhaust and the transmission oil pan after you lift them. Really only a problem if you want to maintain full suspension articulation, which we do ... so ... parts have been ordered. This won't be a mall crawler. We're lined up for several trail rides and another trip out to Moab in 2012. It's also my daily driver so I'm trying to keep it as versatile as possible. Our other vehicle is the 2011 SVT Raptor Super Crew. More on that in another thread.
You're welcome to drive ours any time you'd like to kick the tires on one. We're organizing quite a few day-trip trail rides for 2012 also. It'd be great to have you join us on those!
I am really suprised they are not offering the 5.7 Hemi in these. I have been kicking the idea of getting a 4wd toy... On a side note my buddy down in Birmingham might be hitting Moad this year too for the easter jeep safari
Here is our's and yes the 2012's have the 3.6,and the new for 2012 5 speed auto. They dont need the V8 in my opinion. They have no problem getting down the road anymore.
I've had a CJ5, 2 CJ7s, and a TJ. I love JEEPs but don't have the room for another toy. My next will be a JK for sure. Pictures or it doesn't exist
Have you had any problem with the Freedom Top leaking? I asked one of the guys at work about his and he hadn't until about two weeks after asking him, then it started leaking.
Loved my rubi, just needed more power. How. Is the pentastar engine? I still have a soft top i need to unload if you know anyone that might need one
