Yukon High Performance Replacement Ring & Pinion Set Dana 44 HD 5.13 Ratio

The Yukon Gear & Axle ring and pinion set features a 5.13 ratio, specifically designed to optimize your Dana 44 HD differential. This ratio is a significant change from stock, making it ideal if you've upgraded to larger tires or added more horsepower to your 1996-2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee. It helps bring your engine's RPM back into its optimal power band, improving acceleration and overall drivability.

Yukon engineers use advanced heat-treating techniques and rigorous quality testing to ensure these gears meet exacting specifications for structure and surface finish. This set includes the necessary 7/16 ring gear bolts, a crush sleeve for proper setup, and a 1310 yoke, making it a comprehensive kit for your differential rebuild. The Dana 44 HD is known for its strength, and this high-performance gear set is built to match that capability.

When installing a new ring and pinion set, it's crucial to follow the manufacturer's break-in procedure to ensure the longevity of the gears. This process typically involves a series of heat cycles at moderate speeds. Yukon also backs this gear set with their Y.E.S. Plan, a lifetime, no-questions-asked protection plan, giving you confidence in your investment.
