When it comes to improving traction, increasing torque, or compensating for larger tires, upgrading your gear ratio is essential. Yukon Gear & Axle’s 4.56 ring and pinion set is a proven solution for off-road performance, daily driving, or towing applications. Designed with premium materials and industry-leading heat treatment processes, this gear set delivers the strength and precision you need for reliable performance in harsh conditions.
This set is engineered to fit the standard rotation AMC Model 35 axle and is built with a 7.562" ring gear diameter, 8-bolt configuration, and 26-spline pinion. Ideal for those looking to increase low-end torque and improve drivability after tire size or powertrain modifications.
Important Fitment Note:
Late-model AMC 35 axles may use 7/16" ring gear bolts, while this Yukon gear set uses 3/8" bolts. If your carrier is configured for 7/16" bolts, you will need 8 each of part numbers YSPBLT-008 and YSPBLT-027 to ensure proper installation.
