Product Description

The Revolution Gear & Axle REV-JK-RUB-488 gear package is engineered for the 2007-2018 Jeep Wrangler JK Rubicon equipped with Dana 44 front and Dana 44 rear axles. With a 4.88:1 ratio, this kit restores proper driveline gearing when larger tires, lift kits or heavy usage have pushed the stock 3.73/4.10 ratios beyond their ideal range.

Constructed from high-grade 8620 alloy steel, and heat-treated for durability, the ring & pinion sets are precision-lapped for smooth engagement and long service life. The inclusion of full front and rear differential sets plus master install bearing kits makes this a comprehensive upgrade solution - rather than simply a ring & pinion swap. This is ideal for JK Rubicon owners with lifted rigs, large-tire setups, or heavy off-road use.

Installation should be performed by a qualified technician using proper differential-setup tools - bearing preload, backlash and gear pattern must all be correctly set for optimal performance and longevity. Fitment is confirmed for the years and vehicle model listed; coverage for other years, axle configurations, or other model platforms is **unconfirmed** at time of listing.
