Yukon YK D44-IFS-L Master Overhaul Kit for 1993-1996 Ford Bronco/F-150

Vehicle Fitment

• 1993-1996 Ford Bronco (4x4) - Dana 44 IFS Twin Traction Beam front axle
• 1993-1996 Ford F-150 (4x4, 1/2-ton) - Dana 44 IFS Twin Traction Beam front axle

Fitment Notes

• This is the "late" style Dana 44 IFS kit (1993-1996 production). A separate kit (YK D44-IFS-E) covers 1980-1992 "early" style axles, which use a different right differential output shaft retention design (3-bolt thrust plate vs. snap ring) - confirm your exact model year before ordering
• Reverse rotation gears only; not interchangeable with standard rotation Dana 44 applications
• 1997+ F-150 switched to a Ford 8.8" IFS front axle and is not compatible with this kit; Bronco production ended after 1996

Product Description

The Yukon YK D44-IFS-L is a complete master overhaul kit for the Dana 44 IFS Twin Traction Beam front differential found in 1993-1996 Ford Bronco and F-150 4x4 trucks. This kit bundles everything needed for a full rebuild into one part number: carrier and pinion bearings and races, pinion seal, axle seals, a complete shim kit, crush sleeve, ring gear bolts, and the thread locker, marking compound, and gasket needed for proper reassembly.

Built with Timken bearings, it's designed to restore correct bearing preload and gear backlash after wear, a gear ratio change, or a locker installation. Because Ford revised the Dana 44 IFS design partway through its production run, confirming your exact model year - and using the matching "early" or "late" kit - is essential before ordering, since the two use different internal retention designs that aren't interchangeable.

This is a rebuild-support kit rather than a ring-and-pinion set, so it pairs with either your existing gears or a new gear set when changing ratio. Installation involves full disassembly of the front differential and proper backlash/preload setup, so it's best suited for an experienced DIY installer or a differential shop.
