Revolution Gear & Axle 96-01 Jeep Cherokee XJ Dana 35 Rear Timken Bearing 3.73 Ratio Gear Package

This Revolution Gear & Axle package gives you everything you need to re-gear the differential on your 1996-2001 Jeep Cherokee XJ with a Dana 35 rear axle and a 3.73 gear ratio. Inside this kit, you'll find a complete set of Timken bearings, which are well-known for their durability and smooth operation, along with the new 3.73 ring and pinion gears. This package is designed to be a comprehensive solution for upgrading your Jeep's gearing, whether you've added larger tires or are looking for improved on-road performance.

Revolution Gear & Axle has put together this kit using quality components to ensure a solid rebuild. The Timken bearings are a standout feature, offering a strong reputation for handling heavy loads and providing long service life, which is crucial for a drivetrain component like a differential. The 3.73 ratio is a popular choice for Cherokees, striking a good balance between highway cruising comfort and off-road capability. This kit aims to simplify the re-gearing process by bundling the essential parts, saving you the hassle of sourcing each piece individually.

When undertaking a differential gear change, it's important to have all the necessary installation components. This kit focuses on the core gearing and bearing elements. You'll want to ensure you have proper gear marking compound, RTV sealant, and potentially a new pinion seal and gasket on hand, as these are often replaced during a differential service but may not be included in every gear package. Always refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for the most accurate guidance on the process and any additional items required for a successful installation.
