Yukon Gear & Axle Yukon Gear Ring and Pinion Gear Set for GM IFS 7.2" Differential 3.42 Ratio - YG GM7.2-342R

If you're looking to upgrade your ride's performance, you can't go wrong with the Yukon Gear & Axle high-performance ring and pinion gear set. I've had my fair share of experiences with different gear sets, and let me tell you, Yukon's are a cut above the rest. These guys really know their stuff—engineered with precision and built to last, they use advanced heat-treating techniques that give these gears a toughness you can trust. You won’t have to worry about them giving up on you when you push your vehicle to the limit.

One of the coolest things about Yukon is their Y.E.S. Plan. It’s a lifetime protection plan that covers your gear set for as long as you own your vehicle, no questions asked. That kind of peace of mind is hard to come by in this industry. Whether you're cranking up the horsepower, fitting larger tires, or just trying to get better traction on those muddy trails, Yukon has a wide selection of gear ratios. Seriously, they’ve got you covered for just about any setup you can think of.

Now, let’s get into the nitty-gritty. This particular gear set is designed to fit GM's 7.2" front differentials. It features a 3.42 gear ratio, which strikes a nice balance for both on-road and off-road performance. The 27 spline pinion and 10 ring gear bolts ensure a solid connection, so you can hit the gas without second-guessing your setup. Just keep in mind, mounting hardware isn’t included, so you’ll want to grab that separately.

Here’s a quick rundown of where this gear set fits:

  • Buick Rainier (2004-2007)
  • Chevrolet Astro (1990-2005)
  • Chevrolet Express (2003-2014)
  • Chevrolet S10 (1983-2002)
  • Chevrolet TrailBlazer (2002-2009)
  • GMC Envoy (2002-2009)
  • GMC Jimmy (1991)
  • GMC S15 (1983-1990)
  • GMC Savana (2003-2014)
  • GMC Sonoma (1992-2004)
  • GMC Typhoon (1992-1993)
  • Oldsmobile Bravada (1991-1994 & 1996-2004)
  • Saab 9-7x (2005-2009)

In short, if you're serious about getting the most out of your vehicle, this Yukon Gear set is definitely worth considering. It’s built to handle whatever you throw at it, and with that lifetime warranty, you can’t really go wrong. Grab yours and feel the difference on your next adventure!
