Hurry Low Stock

If you're looking to beef up your Nissan's rear end, let me tell you about the Yukon Gear & Axle ring and pinion gear set. These guys have been around the block and know their stuff when it comes to gears. With a solid reputation in the automotive world, you can trust that they’ve put a lot of thought into the engineering of these components. The high-performance ring and pinion sets are designed to handle the kind of power you might be throwing at your ride, whether you've got a stock setup or you've cranked up the horsepower.

What I really appreciate is the attention to detail. Yukon uses advanced heat-treating techniques to ensure these gears are tough enough to handle whatever you throw at them. Plus, they’ve got rigorous quality testing in place, so you know you’re getting something that’s built to last. They even back it up with their Y.E.S. Plan, which is a lifetime warranty that covers your gear set for as long as you own your vehicle. No strings attached—just solid peace of mind.

Now, let’s talk about the specs. This set is specifically made for the Nissan M226 rear end, featuring an 8.5" ring gear diameter and a 3.13 gear ratio. That means if you’re running bigger tires or just want to optimize your traction, this setup is going to give you a nice balance without sacrificing too much in terms of torque. And with a 24 spline pinion and 10 ring gear bolts, you know it’s built for durability.

  • Fits: Nissan M226 rear
  • Ring Gear Diameter: 8.5 inches
  • Pinion Spline Count: 24
  • Ring Gear Bolt Count: 10
  • Gear Ratio: 3.13

Just a heads up, you’ll need to grab some mounting hardware separately, as it doesn't come included. But that’s a small price to pay for the quality you’re getting.

Compatibility:

  • Nissan Frontier (2003-2014)
  • Nissan Pathfinder (2003-2012)
  • Nissan Titan (2004-2014)
  • Nissan Xterra (2003-2015)

So if you’re looking to step up your game and make sure your Nissan can handle the load, this Yukon gear set is a solid choice. Trust me, you won't regret it.
