If you're diving into a differential rebuild, you really can't go wrong with the Yukon Master Overhaul Kit. I've been around the block with these kits, and let me tell you, they come packed with everything you need to get the job done right. No more guessing what parts you might need halfway through; this kit has you covered from start to finish.
What sets Yukon apart is their commitment to quality. This kit comes with Timken bearings and races, which are pretty much the gold standard in the industry. You also get high-quality seals and all those little bits and pieces that often get overlooked. Trust me, having the right seals and small parts can save you a lot of headaches later on.
Now, let’s talk specifics. This overhaul kit includes carrier bearings and races, pinion bearings and races, a pinion seal, and a complete shim kit. You’ll also find ring gear bolts, a pinion nut, a crush sleeve, thread locker, marking compound with a brush, and even silicone. It’s like they thought of everything you might need—no running back to the store halfway through your project.
And if you’re wondering about fitment, this kit is designed for the 8.5" Oldsmobile differentials, specifically for those 28 spline axles. So if you’ve got an Oldsmobile 442 from 1964 to 1971, or a Cutlass from 1968 to 1972, or even a Pontiac GTO from 1970 to 1971, you’re in luck. This kit is tailor-made for those rides.
Yukon really does their homework to ensure each kit is comprehensive, and that’s why I keep coming back to them. Whether you're a seasoned pro or just getting your hands dirty for the first time, this kit is a solid investment for anyone looking to tackle a differential rebuild.
