Revolution Gear & Axle 96-04 Jeep Grand Cherokee Dana 44 Rear Timken Bearing 4.56 Ratio Gear Package

This is a Revolution Gear & Axle 4.56 ratio gear package specifically for the Dana 44 rear axle found in 1996-2004 Jeep Grand Cherokees (ZJ and WJ models). If you're looking to change your differential gearing, perhaps to accommodate larger tires or improve highway cruising with a heavier load, this package is a solid choice. The 4.56 ratio is a popular option for off-road use and larger tire sizes, offering a good balance between low-end torque for crawling and manageable highway RPMs.

Inside this kit, you'll find a well-made 4.56 ratio ring and pinion gear set, designed to replace your stock gears. Crucially, it also includes a complete set of Timken bearings. Timken is a well-known name in the bearing industry, and their bearings are recognized for their durability and consistent performance. Having quality bearings is essential for the smooth operation and longevity of your differential. This package aims to provide the core components needed for a comprehensive gear change, ensuring you have the right parts for a successful installation.

When undertaking a gear change like this, it's important to have all the necessary installation components. While this package includes the gears and bearings, you'll typically need additional items such as differential fluid, a gear marking compound and brush for pattern checking, and potentially new axle seals or a gasket depending on the condition of your original housing. Always refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for a complete list of required tools and parts to ensure a proper and lasting repair.
