Unfortunately most jeeps will remain stock there whole lives and the heaviest off-roading will see a dirt trail to someoneÆs house. Jeep knows this and keeps there cost down by using a cheap rear end. I say there cost because they get to mark up there price like Harley does. The stock rear end is just fine for a stock jeep. Only when you start adding lots of lift and bigger tires is it useless. Until jeeps are actually purchased for off-roading and not because they are cute or masculine or whatever some idiot kid thinks he looks good in it, will jeeps come superiorly equipped from the factor stock without fancy options.
