Yukon Gears is a good brand. I know a few people running them with more rwhp than stock and larger tires and they are holding up well. i dont know of anyone running that exact ratio tho. pretty sure my boss is running yukon 4.88's in his Raptor with 37's, stage 2 Roush supercharger kit, long tube headers, etc.. over 600hp at the crank.
We offer Yukon as well. Let me know if you would like a quote with your discount
U&A,. Used to be that Yukon was top shelf in the wrangler world. IIRC, they had good better and best. I believe they have some gears now produced by US gear. I have no knowledge of US gear, but they are made in the states, no idea if the material is from the US or imported. Do your research. Also unless you know what you are doing, this is one job that you may want to have done by the professional, close enough will leave you stranded.
My recommendation is--NEW CERTIFIED YUKON GEARS installed my registered shop, otherwise--NO WARRANTY--
Adhere to the shops "BREAKIN" advice and use either their RECOMMENDED FLUID--OR
Valvoline 75w-140 sybthetic, after 500 miles--
Good luck

I was told by a rear end shop that you only want to use conventional oil in a Yukon setup. They told me they would not warranty the gears with synthetic oils.

If they cant explain why then they have no reasoning.
Redline gear oil is ester based. Its amazing stuff.
I'm sorry for sharing what I was told from a local driveline company on a public forum.
Have a great evening.

Im wondeeing if they were worried about seal conditioners in some synthetics. That used to be a problem but not so much anymore. Just guessing why they would say that.
