I have an 04 Rubicon on 27s 589 and that thing goes thru anything.  It could handle water better than my 05 Rincon 650.  My advice if you want a great mudding bike, the rubicon is the machine.

i dont think they make a 2wd rubicon atvrider#2. my buddy has a rubicon and it does preety good, he has 26" mud tires but has tp put it in 4low when it gets thick. make sure you get a newer one that has selectable 4wd because his all time 4wd and its not as fun
