Yukon Ring & Pinion Gear Set - Toyota 8in High Pinion Reverse 4.88 Ratio w/ Yoke Kit (No Clamshell)

This Yukon Gear & Axle ring and pinion gear set features a 4.88 ratio, designed specifically for the 8-inch high pinion front differential in your 1991-1997 Toyota Land Cruiser. The high-pinion design is crucial for front differentials, as it ensures the driveshaft spins in the same direction as the axle gears, which helps to reduce wear and improve efficiency. This set is built with high-grade steel and features a carefully designed gear tooth surface finish to reduce friction and heat buildup, which is important for longevity, especially when you're pushing your Land Cruiser with added horsepower or larger tires.

Included in this kit is a 29-spline conversion yoke and all the necessary small parts for installation, making it a comprehensive solution. It's important to note that this set is designed for applications without the clamshell design, fitting earlier models with the stock 27-spline axle shafts while providing the 29-spline upgrade. The 4.88 gear ratio is a popular choice for Land Cruisers that have been lifted or fitted with larger tires, as it helps to bring the engine's RPM back into its optimal operating range, improving acceleration and drivability.

Yukon Gear & Axle backs this ring and pinion set with their Y.E.S. Plan, a lifetime, no-questions-asked protection plan. This offers significant peace of mind, knowing your investment is covered for as long as you own your vehicle. Proper installation by a qualified technician is recommended to ensure optimal performance and durability.
