Yep, anything with the Jeep 6 bolt pattern and the 23 spline. Klune and also the Rocktrac 4:1. The Rubicon Rock-Trac won't fit in my Sport without a body lift. I think 1" would do it but 2" for sure would take care of that. smile

Sucks Behemoth is out of business. Looks like D&D is done, too. frown frown
