Yukon high performance ring & pinion set, Dana 60, reverse rotation, 4.56 thick
YG D60R-456R-T
This is the Yukon 4.56 thick ring and pinion set, YG D60R-456R-T, for the reverse rotation Dana Spicer 60. It has a 29-spline pinion and a thick ring gear.
Fitment
- Axle: Dana Spicer 60, reverse rotation (a front axle application, per retailer listings)
- Ratio: 4.56, thick gear
- Pinion: 29 spline
- Ring gear: 9.75 inch, 12 bolts
- Carrier: made for a 4.10 and down carrier
4.56 is the second ratio in this group of thick reverse rotation sets (4.30 through 5.38).
What "thick" means here
"Thick" refers to the ring gear design. Yukon lists it as a thick gear set made for a 4.10 and down carrier, so a 4.56 ratio can go on that lower-ratio carrier. Retailer listings give the carrier break for this axle as 4.10/4.56.
Check before you order
- Rotation: this is a reverse rotation set. A standard rotation Dana 60 needs a different Yukon part.
- Carrier: confirm the carrier in your axle is the 4.10 and lower type. A carrier cut for 4.56 and higher is not what this set is made for.
- Yukon's page does not list specific vehicles, so match by axle, rotation, ring gear size and pinion spline count.
What's included
This is the gear pair alone. Bearings, seals, install kit and any carrier parts you need are sold separately.
Installation
Set pinion depth and backlash carefully and check the contact pattern before you close the axle. A shop that sets up gears is the safer choice if you have not done it before.
Warranty
Yukon lists a standard one-year warranty on its ring and pinion sets and promotes a separate Y.E.S. protection plan. Check Yukon for the current terms.
