Yes, but I have serious engine mods. With just the High Lifter performance kit you should be able to wheelie.

I don't see how anybody could do a wheelie on a stock Rubicon. The one I had felt more like a lawn mower than a sporty ride. That's why I traded it in on my new Prairie.

I can easliy ride a wheelie on my Rubi. My feet are one the floorboard, and I stand up for more control.

If it has more than one wheel it can be wheelied. Heck I can ride half a block on one wheel on my daughters moped....it is not as much about power as you might think!

I do them very easily and every time I ride.Here is a pick of me doing one,I could go a pretty long way.The power is very controllable.

On my Rubi I have to stand up on the back racks and gun it. I am looking to get a K&N Power Kit for it.
