Yukon Ring & Pinion High Performance Gear Set for Toyota Clamshell Front Axle 4.56 Ratio (Thick)

Yukon Gear & Axle is well-known for setting a high standard in the automotive gear industry. If you're looking to optimize your Toyota 4Runner, FJ Cruiser, or Tacoma's drivetrain for larger tires or increased horsepower, this high-performance ring and pinion gear set is a solid option. This specific set features a 4.56 ratio, which is often chosen to bring your vehicle's gearing back into an optimal range after installing larger tires, improving acceleration and towing capability.

Engineers at Yukon use advanced design and heat-treating techniques, backed by in-house quality labs, to ensure these gears meet exacting specifications. The gear tooth surface finish is designed to reduce friction and heat, which is beneficial for high-torque conditions and extended use. Both the ring and pinion are made from high-grade steel, and the fitment is designed to OEM specifications for a direct match to your vehicle's front clamshell axle. This set uses 10 ring gear bolts for a strong connection.

It's important to note that this specific set is designed for the Toyota clamshell front axle and is intended for use with carriers that originally came with a 3.73 ratio or lower. If your vehicle came with a 3.73 or numerically lower gear ratio from the factory, this 4.56 ratio set will be a direct replacement. Yukon also offers a Y.E.S. Plan, a lifetime protection plan for your gears, and these sets come with a 1-year warranty against manufacturing defects.
