Type of review

It really is "range". Includes two straps of different sizes, but the packaging says the straps are designed to fit a cap of the same size. obviously not. In my case the bolts are about 1/4" shorter than stock and require a smaller head. Said it was tested on a 2004 Hummer H2 but that's definitely not the case.

Pros
  • spare parts
Cons
  • boring packaging

Doesn't fit my Wrangler TJ as advertised.

Fits one rod and two screws. The other strap and two screws were larger and didn't work. I had to use two packs to get everything working properly. Glad we ordered more and had extra parts. I love that I can buy Revain auto parts, but sometimes those parts don't fit. I can't take it back to my local parts store to exchange for the correct part.

Pros
  • Automotive
Cons
  • Doubtful

Not for my Jeep! Fits

Revain's mapping chart is completely wrong. I bought this for my '91 Jeep Wrangler which they said would fit. It's not like this. The kit contains one correct size and one oversize with unused screws. I requested a replacement thinking the packaging was just defective, but after reading the reviews I can see that Dorman is selling exactly that in this packaging. So I canceled the replacement. The description should say so and now I'm trying to figure out how to get a refund which is making…

The Revane and Dorman assembly instructions are completely wrong. For .

The Revain and Dorman installation instructions are completely wrong. For some reason this kit comes with 2 different straps that you would never use in real life. So you buy at least 2 of these and throw away the straps and screws that don't fit. The largest belt is for the 1480 gimbal sometimes found on 1 ton pickups. The smaller strap appears to be for the lighter 1310 U-Link. Revain and Dorman state that they will fit 1410 gimbals, but that is not the case. Do yourself a favor and buy belts

Pros
  • Gearbox and Gearbox
Cons
  • Socket Required
