Yeah, biggest thing will be 2 door to 4 door. I had a 4 door Jeep JL on 35 I lifted. And now 4 door Basesquatch. I like the steering in the Bronco better than the Jeep for sure. I also think it rides better on road, and shines in ruttted out trails where you can go a little faster with IFS. But with the IFS you cant beat on it as hard if you get stuck on something, or are rock crawling.
My JL wasnt a Rubicon and didnt have lockers. If you off road a lot lockers are one of those things you dont need until you need them.
That being said, my JL went a lot of places I didnt think it would go without lockers. The Xrecon comes with bigger Rubicon axles, you can always add lockers later.
