How Many Differential Locks Does the Wrangler Rubicon Have?
2 Answers
Wrangler Rubicon's three differential locks can be engaged simply by pressing the [AXLE-LOCK] button while the vehicle is stationary. The [AXLE-LOCK] button located next to the Sway-Bar controls the front and rear mechanical locking differentials of the Wrangler Rubicon. It has the following three modes: 1. Press once: Locks the rear differential. 2. Press twice consecutively: Locks the front differential. 3. Press three times consecutively: Locks both front and rear differentials.
As an off-road enthusiast, I've driven the Wrangler Rubicon multiple times. It comes with front and rear differential locks, totaling two locks. These differential locks are incredibly useful in tough terrains like mud or rocks. Once engaged, they prevent wheel slippage and ensure stable traction. On my last desert off-road trip, the sandy surface was extremely soft, but with the differential locked, the vehicle climbed slopes steadily, showing impressive performance. Although it only has two locks, they're more than sufficient for off-roading, and you can manually adjust them with switches, making the system both flexible and reliable. Just a reminder: don't use them unnecessarily on regular roads to avoid increased fuel consumption or component damage. The Rubicon's setup stands out among similar vehicles and is truly trustworthy.
