Yukon DuraGrip 3.73 posi

Anybody know anything about these?

Seems like a descent value since it includes the Ring and pinion, bearing kit..



Thinking about upping it to 28 spline or keep 26 spline to save some $$. My differential pinion bearing is shot and the ring and pinion probably are too. So I need a stop gap repair to hold me over for 4-5 years until I can get a new $3000 rear end.

Thanks!
Chuck

The Dura Grip is fine, but the USA Standard gear is junk.

Just the response I need... thanks big gear head !!!

I was quoted $600 for labor to tear down the rear and install new axles, bearings, seals, ring and pinion and posi diff, is that reasonable?

That's a little high, but the price will depend on where you are.
