REVIEWS
Installed the Yukon 5.13 gears on my ’16 JK Rubicon and the Jeep feels unstoppable. Running 37s is effortless now — tons of torque and the gears are whisper quiet even on the highway.

Swapped in the Yukon Dana 44 5.13 set for my JK and the crawl ratio is perfect now. The Jeep climbs like a beast, and the gears are solid with zero noise. Best upgrade I’ve made so far.
