Running G2's with no issue. Lifetime warranty on the R&P. running 4.88's on heavy 35's. You could do 5.13's with pretty much no issues. Most guys who break shit are wheeling pretty hard.

I got Yukon's now and the rumor is thats what the factory is using. Most gears are made in a couple of factories and they jsut change the brand name. Check out 4ws.com they had a price no one could beat and although they don't say what brand it is, they're Yukon gears.

I say no. Yukon is junk. Period. They sell used items as new and feel there is no reason to think lying about the specifics is anything but just fine.

At least that's my experience with Randy's manufacturing arm.

My buddy got a set a yukons that had a small dent on both. We thought maybe one was dropped, but they both had them. Personally my yukons went in fine and were marked clearly. my superior gears on the other hand were a nightmare to get a good pattern and were not marked.

I used usa standard gears and they have been perfect. Saved some cash on them too! The main thing with gears is getting them set up properly. If done correctly most will work out fine.
