Description
Exceptional Performance for the Trail. Give your Jeep exceptional off-road performance by upgrading to the Rough Country Dana 30 Front 4.88 Gears Ring and Pinion Kit. This ring and pinion gear kit lets you maximize the larger tires you’ve installed on your ’97 to ’06 Wrangler, allowing you to take advantage of not just its looks, but its performance as well. Installing this ring and pinion gear set in your vehicle is especially helpful during rock crawling.
Improving Your Jeep’s Potential through Re-Gearing. Installing larger tires on your Jeep can often create issues with your stock gear ratio simply because the stock gear ratio is optimized for factory tires. Some of these issues include diminished performance and fuel economy. Swapping out your stock ring and pinion gear with the Rough Country Dana 30 Front 4.88 Gears Ring and Pinion Kit (which happens to be stronger too) helps reclaim the performance potential that’s lost due to larger tires.
Long Lasting Construction. The Rough Country Dana 30 Front 4.88 Gears Ring and Pinion Kit are forged from 8620 steel. These components are then subjected to judicious heat treatment. This results in a ring gear and pinion set that offers a lot of strength and durability. Additionally, this ring and pinion set features smooth-finished gears that run cooler and quieter than other ring and pinion gears.
Professional Installation is Advised. Installing Rough Country Dana 30 Front 4.88 Gears Ring and Pinion Kit will necessitate a number of specialized tools, like a bearing puller, a bearing press, a dial indicator, and precision calipers. You’ll also need to have extensive mechanical knowledge and skills, as well as a lot of time. As such, an installation by a professional is highly advised.
A 10-Year Limited Warranty Backing. The Rough Country Dana 30 Front 4.88 Gears Ring and Pinion Kit are backed by a 10-year limited warranty covering manufacturing defects. Please visit the manufacturer’s website for more details.
Application. The Rough Country Dana 30 Front 4.88 Gears Ring and Pinion Kit fit all 1997 to 2006 Jeep Wrangler TJ models.
Application Notes. The Rough Country Dana 30 Front 4.88 Gears Ring and Pinion Kit are for use with Dana 30 low pinion axles only. This ring and pinion gear kit won’t fit Dana 30 high pinion axles.
