Hi everyone newb here with a question. what is the diffence between these two kits. SCX10™ 2012 Jeep® Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon and SCX10 Jeep Wrangler G6. thanks brian

Other than the body... Wheelbase?

Yup, just checked. The G6 wb is 12" and the Unlimited wb is 12.3"
Also the overall length. The G6 is 18.1" and the Unlimited is 21.25"

You can also get the Dingo kit with the 11.4" wb

And welcome to the forum. "thumbsup"

Re: difference between kits
 

G6 has 4 link front and rear. Rubicon has 3 link front.
Rubicon comes with a spare tire G6 doesn't.
G6 has light bar.

Probably more but some that i have seen including what Hulldiver said

Re: difference between kits
 

Do they both come with the aluminum shocks? I know the Dingo comes with plastic shocks.

They come with the Icon shocks

How much would it be to put a 4 link onto the non g6, I still have about a month to the decide and order when I get my taxes back

Re: difference between kits
 

You can run a 4 link to the front of the 2012 JKU with parts included in the kit. There are a bunch of goodies in the parts bag.

G6 a smaller wheel base
G6 different body,bumpers,lights
G6 Axials best aluminum shocks (icon)

You should get a truss in the parts bag to convert the front to 4 link (the same piece used to mount your 4 links on the rear axle)...You will need specific length upper links and hardware to complete the conversion unless you don't mind using plastic upper links...you wont get aluminum upper links for the front or rear...So maybe an upgrade you would consider down the road.

I think axial should step up and just give you all aluminum links with a kit:roll:

Re: difference between kits
 

I only got this in the Rubicon kit
Axial Racing - SCX10 RTR Links Parts Tree
Which only has the one truss. So really guess you would just need that part.

Re: difference between kits
 

when i got our rtr rubicon with my g6 kit, the rubicon rtr came with 3 link front with a truss in the tree but no extra plastic links in the correct size to do 4 link up front on the RTR, g6 kit came with everything needed for front/back 4 link
