Default Gear types.

I went with Superior gears and axle shafts. I haven't had any problems. Went with 35's & 4:88 for my 6 speed.

Come to PHX, do some 4 wheeling, then have your gears replaced....Yukon 4.88 gears, install kits, labor, fluid, $1075, taxes included....Less than a day for install.

I've got about 30K miles on my Superiors, with wheeling, no problems at all.
