Select the year of your Chevrolet Caprice:

If you're looking to beef up your ride, the Yukon Gear & Axle rear axle shaft is a solid choice. I've had my hands on these for a while now, and let me tell you, they’re built tough. Whether you're tearing it up off-road, cruising the streets, or hitting the track, these axles deliver the kind of performance you can trust. Made from high-quality alloys and treated with the latest heat-treating tech, they’re stronger than what you’ll find stock, which is a big deal if you’re pushing your vehicle to its limits.
Now, if you’re working on a GM with an 8.2" or 8.5" rear, this axle shaft is going to fit right in. It’s got a 28 spline count, which means it’s ready to handle some serious torque. The length is about 30 1/2", and it features a 2.780" brake pilot, making it a perfect match for a range of classic Chevys and Pontiacs. I’ve seen these in action on everything from a ’73 Chevelle to an ’85 Impala, and they hold up like a champ.
- Fits GM 8.2" and 8.5" passenger cars
- 28 spline for durability
- 30 1/2" long for a precise fit
- 2.780" brake pilot ensures compatibility
Here’s a quick rundown of some rides that can benefit from this axle shaft:
- Chevrolet Caprice (1980-1988)
- Chevrolet Chevelle (1973)
- Chevrolet Impala (1980-1985)
- Chevrolet Monte Carlo (1973-1977)
- Pontiac Bonneville (1980-1981)
- Pontiac Grand Prix (1973-1974)
So if you’re ready to upgrade and want something that’s going to last, the Yukon Gear & Axle shaft is worth considering. It’s not just another part; it’s a piece of gear that’s going to help you get the most out of your ride.
