Review on Yukon Gear D44JK 456RUB Performance Differential by Bobby Valadez

Yukon is my preferred axle component manufacturer. I've used their ring and gear set in every axle I've built from scratch or rebuilt and never had any problems. The problem I have with this ring and gear is that someone swapped out the Yukon parts inside and put the Crown parts inside. I noticed something was wrong when the styrofoam in the box was covered with tape. On the side was a label with a crown. The packaging foam itself was shaped differently than what I'm used to from the Yukon. The ring and gear were wrapped in brown wax paper. The stickers and booklet were also missing from the box. I thought maybe this was a separate issue so I sent the box back with the reason for the expiration date and ordered a different ring and gear. A few days later I received another set, the problem is the same. This time the parts were wrapped in white wax paper and the packaging foam in shrink wrap. In both cases, the ring and gears were not engraved with Yukon part numbers and were made of solid black oxide. I bought a Yukon bezel and cog for an axle set I'm building that included genuine Yukon parts, booklet and decal. This review is for parts I received from Revain, not Yukon parts.
