Description of πŸ”§ Yukon Gear & Axle YA WF88-31-KIT: The Ultimate 88 Axle Kit for Ford Explorer 8.8" Differential - High-Performance 4340 Chrome-Moly Construction

Ultimate 8.8 axle kit 95-02 Explorer, 4340 Chrome-Moly (Double drilled axles); the Yukon Ultimate 88 kit eliminates the factory c-clips and converts your housing to use two 4340 Chrome-Moly bolt in axles. No welding is needed, just a little cutting to remove the factory axle bearing seat. The result is a super strong setup to give you years of hard use on the trail. Yukon 4340 Chrome-Moly alloy rear axles come with a limited lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects. Eliminates factory c-clips. Fit type: Vehicle Specific.

Incomplete/expensive parts missing

Box came with everything except bearings which are either out of stock or cost $130 or more if purchased separately. The packaging says they are included. false advertising.

Pros
  • Yukon 4340 chromoly rear axles come with a limited lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects
Cons
  • Doubtful

Complete set, easy installation.

Excellent kit. It was easy to install and had good instructions. You just have to remember that you have to press the bearings into the axle. Hitting them with a hammer won't work.

Pros
  • Installation Type: Vehicle Specific
Cons
  • No Instructions

Good product, wrong content

Overall, the product itself is good. Unfortunately, the first batch was accidentally sent back to Revain for no apparent reason. Revain fixed this, but the next pack had additional components that weren't needed and not enough components that were needed. I decided to just spend $15 and buy a second print rather than messing around with returns and trying to get a third batch.

Pros
  • Eliminates factory clips
Cons
  • Everything is fine

Amazing quality for one axle

Overall this is a top notch kit. Unfortunately the package I received was damaged and one set of bearings was missing. I contacted Yukon directly and they were on site and got me a replacement within 2 days with no questions asked. Installation was relatively easy, but the bearings didn't press against the shafts. When I visited my local 4x4 shop and $50 later I pressed the bearings in and everything was assembled. We want to make the Ford 8.8 as bulletproof as the Dana 60!

Pros
  • Ultimate 8.8 Axle Kit 95-02 Explorer, 4340 Chrome-Moly (Double Hole Axles); The Yukon Ultimate 88 kit eliminates the factory C-clamps and converts your chassis to use two 4340 chrome moly screws in the axles
Cons
  • The packaging is ugly
