If you're diving into a gear installation project on your Ram 2500, let me tell you, the Yukon Pinion Installation Kit is a solid choice, especially if your ride's got lower mileage. I’ve used this kit myself, and it really shines when you’re looking to reuse the carrier bearings and races. It’s like having a trusty toolbox that’s packed with everything you need without any fluff.

This kit comes with Timken bearings and races’these are the kind of parts you want when you're putting together something as crucial as your differential. Timken is a name you can trust, and they’ve got the reputation to back it up. Plus, you get high-quality seals and all the little bits and pieces that can sometimes slip through the cracks when you’re ordering parts. Yukon does their homework, making sure each kit is tailored for your specific application, so you won’t be left scrambling for parts mid-install.

• It’s got a small bearing ring and pinion set, which is great for those of us who like to keep things running smoothly without unnecessary upgrades.
• This particular kit is designed for the 11.5" rear end on 2014 and up Ram 2500s, so if that’s your truck, you’re in luck.

Now, let’s get into some specs. You’re looking at tapered bearings, which provide a snug fit and help with load distribution’essential for handling the tough stuff. And yes, it includes races, which is a big plus. Just a heads up, these bearings aren’t sealed, so keep that in mind if you’re planning on hitting some rough trails.

In terms of fitment, this kit is compatible with Ram 2500 models from 2014 to 2016. So if you’re working on one of those, you’re set with the Yukon Gear Pinion Install Kit designed specifically for the GM 11.5" with a small bearing ring and pinion set. Trust me, you’ll appreciate the ease of installation and the peace of mind that comes with using quality parts.
