Review on πŸ”§ Yukon Gear & Axle (YA W38815) Chrome-Moly Outer Stub Axle for GM Truck/Chevy Blazer/Jeep Wagoneer with Disc Brake: Reliable and Durable Choice by James Hodzic

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Axle with components already pressed in

The thing does exactly what it should. The big plus for me is that it comes pre-pressed with seal, bearing, pushrod and plate. This was the part I wasn't prepared for when I clicked on the new accessory. I justified the purchase for myself by getting a sturdier than OEM axle for less than it would cost me to take a Jeep anywhere and have them use their press to replace the old parts on the original axle. There will be screws at work that are difficult to reach with a torque wrench when you're in a driveway. I just used a lock and did my best. Haven't ridden much since installed but everything seems fine, transmission oil leaking through rear tire and brake repaired. Be aware that if you're replacing an axle for this reason (poor sealing leads to leaks), you'll likely need new rotors while you're there. Also, I found I needed a nice big 18mm wrench to get the job done, which isn't found in the regular tool box.

Pros
  • Slim design
Cons
  • Long delivery time
