Yukon Gear & Axle U-Joint Chrome Moly Superjoints for Dana 30, Dana 44, GM 8.5 Front - YP SJ-297X-202

If you're looking to beef up your ride's drivetrain, you might want to check out Yukon Super Joints. These bad boys are a serious upgrade over the factory U-joints, especially if you're hitting the trails hard. They're engineered for the heavy hitters—think Dana 60, Dana 44, Dana 30, and GM 8.5 differentials. What sets them apart? Well, for starters, they sport a 4340 chromoly cross and caps made from 4140 steel. This design isolates wear to the caps, making replacements way more convenient and cost-effective.

One of the standout features of these joints is the larger trunnion. It’s not just for show; it’s designed to be stronger by eliminating those pesky needle bearings. Instead, each trunnion has a grease reservoir, so maintenance is key. Just a heads-up, though: these joints require regular regreasing. So if your daily driver is just that—a daily driver—you might want to think twice before installing them. They’re more suited for the weekend warriors and serious off-roaders.

What You Get:

  • Two complete 297X Super Joints, ready to rock
  • Eight full circle snap rings to keep everything tight
  • A grease gun and ultra-high grade anti-seize for smooth operation

Just to be clear, these joints aren’t meant for everyday use. But if you’re hitting the trails or tackling some serious off-road challenges, they’ll hold up like a champ. They’re built to take the abuse and keep you rolling.

Compatibility:

These Super Joints fit a wide range of vehicles, including:

  • American Motors Eagle (1980-1988)
  • Chevrolet Blazer (1969-1974, 1987-1991)
  • Chevrolet C/K series (1961-1986)
  • Dodge Ram 2500 (1994-2002)
  • Ford Bronco (1966-1979)
  • Jeep models like Cherokee, CJ, and Wrangler (various years)

So, if you're ready to upgrade your ride and tackle those rough terrains, Yukon Super Joints might just be the ticket. They blend strength and reliability, making them a solid choice for anyone serious about off-roading.
