Revolution Gear & Axle 87-96 Jeep YJ/Cherokee XJ Dana 44 Thick Rear Koyo 4.56 Ratio Gear Package

This Revolution Gear & Axle package features Koyo bearings, a well-known name in the bearing industry, for your Dana 44 rear axle. Choosing the right gear ratio is crucial for optimizing your Jeep's performance, especially if you've changed tire sizes or are looking to improve its off-road capability. A 4.56 ratio is a popular choice for Jeeps with larger tires, helping to bring your engine's RPMs back into a more efficient range for highway driving while still providing plenty of low-end torque for crawling.

This is a 'thick' gear set, meaning it's designed for axles that have a thicker housing, like many Dana 44s. This design helps to strengthen the pinion support. The package includes all the necessary Koyo bearings and installation hardware needed to properly set up your new ring and pinion gears. Proper installation is key to ensuring longevity and smooth operation of your drivetrain, so make sure you have the right tools and a service manual handy for the job.

When you're looking to re-gear your Jeep's differential, using quality components like those from Revolution Gear & Axle and Koyo can make a significant difference. This kit is intended for the Dana 44 rear axle found in many 1987-1996 Jeep YJ Wranglers and Cherokee XJs. Ensure your specific vehicle is equipped with this axle before purchasing.
