Product Description

The Yukon Gear & Axle YPKM35-S-27-1.5 is a premium open spider gear kit engineered for AMC Model 35 and Dana 35 rear differentials with a 27-spline axle and 1.560" side gear bore. Built as a direct replacement for factory OE spider gear assemblies, it's optimized for smoother operation, quieter performance, and extended durability under daily driving or moderate off-road loads. This kit fits core Jeep platforms - including Cherokee (XJ), Grand Cherokee (ZJ/WJ), Wrangler (YJ/TJ/LJ), Liberty (KJ) - plus AMC vehicles like AMX, Javelin, Hornet, Eagle, Concord and Pacer.

Manufactured in the USA to higher-than-OEM quality standards, the kit contains precision-machined steel components designed for improved wear life. It includes all internal components needed for a proper rebuild: side and pinion gears, cross-pin shaft and bolt, and thrust washers. Exact sizing ensures faultless engagement and consistent gear mesh across supported vehicles.

Recommended for Jeep rebuilders, wheelers, or older AMC owners needing reliable replacement internals. Compatible only with open differentials - not posi or limited-slip units. Ensure your axle housing has a 1.560" side gear bore (common from 1994 forward) before ordering. Professional or experienced differential rebuild is advised for torque specs and preload setup. One-year warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship.
