Yukon Gear 4.88 Gear Kit for Jeep XJ/YJ Dana 30 & Model 35 - YGK002

Complete Re-Gear Package, Reverse-Rotation Dana 30 Front, AMC Model 35 Rear, 4.88 Ratio, Master Overhaul Components

Yukon Gear YGK002 is a complete 4.88-ratio re-gear package for compatible Jeep Cherokee XJ and Wrangler YJ applications using a reverse-rotation Dana 30 front differential and AMC Model 35 rear differential. It combines front and rear ring-and-pinion sets with the corresponding Yukon Master Overhaul components under one part number for a coordinated axle ratio change.

The installation package includes the bearings, races, pinion and carrier shims, crush sleeve, pinion seal, pinion nut, ring gear bolts, cover gasket, and other setup components needed for the compatible front and rear differentials. Axle bearings, axle seals, and differential covers are not included.

YGK002 fits select Jeep XJ Cherokee and YJ Wrangler models running the reverse-cut Dana 30 front and Model 35 rear axle combination. The 4.88 gearing is a popular choice for Jeep builds moving to larger tires or spending more time on trails, helping shift the drivetrain toward stronger low-speed gearing while keeping both axles matched at the same ratio.
