@charlesr86
@charlesr86 10 місяців тому
Hello, I'm regearing my 2007 JKU and after pulling off the rear differential cover I discovered the bearing caps are on the wrong side, and upside-down. When I bought the jeep in 2010 it had only 9900 miles on it and it was a dealership fleet vehicle. It looked brand new inside and out. The dealer never mentioned any repairs and the gear ratio matches what the build sheet indicates. It seems unlikely any work was done on it before I bought it. Is it possible the caps were installed wrong in the factory? When I reassemble the differential after changing the gears should I put the caps on the same way they are now or should I put them on as the marks show?

@yukongearandaxle
@yukongearandaxle 3 роки тому
All aftermarket gear sets tend to make a very slight amount more noise than an OEM gear set, this is a trade off of the change in tooth profile. you compromise a very small amount of nose in order to see a gain in strength.

@@boatsandjeeps780 when after market gears are said to " make noise" it should not be an objectionable noise, it would be more akin to a stock tire vs an all terrain tire, very subtle, and not noticeable by most people in most cases . when most people think of " making noise " they are referring to the wineing sound caused by an improperly set up gear set, this can occur with any gear set, even an OEM set.

Yukon are the premium aftermarket gears, our proprietary metallurgy, heat treatment process, and tooth profiles result in a gear set that is not only stronger, but also runs cooler and quieter. We are the only aftermarket manufacturer that has full control over our product right from the raw materials, thru forcing, machining heat treatment down all the way to the consumer.

For anyone watching this, knocking those pinion bearing races out with a steel tool is a really bad idea. You can buy a large brass rod for around $40 that will keep you from damaging the housing if you slip.
@yukongearandaxle
@yukongearandaxle 3 роки тому
We recommend our Yukon Bearing Race Drivers for such situations, used and trusted by installers across the nation. They're sized to match the bearing race/housing, so slipping won't occur. You can find them here: www.randysworldwide.com/?searchby=part-number&s=YT+BD or on Amazon and most major retailers.
