I live by their shop, and get to see and hear their rides year round. Cool shop for sure.
Orange Roc!
I miss that car.
If anyone watched that show I talked about today in the Lounge, you would have seen their shop.

So I got my spool but it looks like it's for a 4.56 and up carrier. So I've got to decide what I want to do, I have a 14 bolt with 4.56s. So I either but 4.56 gears for the front end, or I buy 5.13 or 5.38s for both.
What size tire do you plan on running?
Transmission?

Trade you a 4.10 carrier for your spool.

I'm thinking 4.56. Im not sure how long these axles are going to be under this truck and I want to be able to use them in my other truck. I'm looking for rockwells

They don't offer 5.38s to fit a 4.56 up carrier. Only thick gears are available, I just went through it myself. And deff go 5.13 atleast.

That doesn't make any sense at all. 5.38 definitely fits into the "4.56 and up carrier" category... should have looked harder. Motive gear part #D60-538-MG
4.56 is good for 33" tires in my opinion....
And I do go fast stuff, I would think for a wheeler deeper would be way better.

I agree. I'm going to go with 5.38s.
Only way to go.
As does USA standard,G2, Richmond I am not sure if they have a Yukon branded gear to fit the 4.56 and up carrier.
Also the reason so many thick gearsets exist in the Dana 60 application as well as 14 bolt is cause the 4.10 carriers are super common.
