Select the year of your Chevrolet Corvette:

If you’re diving into a gear install on a lower mileage ride, the Yukon Pinion Installation Kit is definitely worth considering. I’ve used this kit on a couple of projects, and it’s been a solid choice, especially when you can reuse those carrier bearings and races. You get Timken bearings and races in the mix, which is a nice touch—these guys are known for their quality. Plus, the seals and small parts are top-notch, ensuring everything fits together without a hitch.
What I really appreciate about Yukon is their attention to detail. They do their homework for each application, so you can trust that when you open the box, you’ll have everything you need to get your gear set installed without any surprises. No one likes to make a trip to the parts store mid-project, right?
- This kit is specifically designed for the Dana Spicer 44HD, fitting perfectly in both the Corvette and Viper models. So if you’re working on one of those, you’re in luck.
- Inside, you’ll find pinion bearings and races, a pinion seal, a crush sleeve, a complete pinion shim kit, and even marking compound with a brush. Everything you need is right there.
Now, let’s talk specs for a second:
- The bearing type is tapered, which is what you want for smooth operation.
- Races are included, so you won’t have to hunt those down separately.
- And just a heads up, these are not sealed, which is something to keep in mind depending on your setup.
This kit is compatible with:
- Chevrolet Corvette from 1985 to 1997
- Dodge Viper from 1992 to 2006 and 2008 to 2010
- Jeep Grand Cherokee from 1996 to 1998
All in all, if you’re looking to tackle a gear install on one of these vehicles, the Yukon Pinion Install Kit is a reliable option that won’t let you down. It’s straightforward, well thought out, and gets the job done without any fuss.
