Educate me on axles

[IPerkWVU]

once you pull the shafts, look for markings, you may get lucky with a PO upgrading and not telling you

Add rear discs to the equation and its the easiest axle swap outside of a full float axle.no need to even bleed the brakes afterwards.

I have rear discs too! Happy New Year to me!

O.P. has a Rubicon which all come factory equipped with discs. @inkedrose , not mentioned is that the Rubicon rear axle uses different shaft lengths between left and right.

Mine is not a Rubicon and the shaft lengths are different. I remember discovering that after I'd pulled them and had to figure out which one was supposed to be longer. A simple test fit didn't work since I couldn't see into the locker case. I can't remember now but I kept them separate and matched them up when I installed the RGAs.
