Yukon's have a mean reputation. You can't go wrong with them. My gears are Motives. Desert Rat, here in AZ, installed them for me and I have no regrets with my decision. My .2 cents is you can't go wrong with gear manufacturers so long as they are installed properly and properly broken in. I purposely had a reputable 4x4 shop install mine, not just because I don't know how to do gear swaps, but because if anything were to bust, it was on them.

Yukon 4.88's with Grizzly locker in the rear. No issues
The Grizzly had the best warranty which included $2000 to cover other components in the even of a catastrophic failure.
Manual or Automatic?
I have a manual and would not go to the 5.13's if you are only going to run 35's. 4.88 w/ 35's is right on the edge of driveable. Most of the time I use 2nd instead of 1st.
