- My first axle rebuild/regear. Taking my YJ from stock gears to 4.56 Yukon. Ended up having to use a Spicer 3.73+ carrier because the Yukon carriers do not have a correctly sized cross pin hole.

Thanks for the video, I will be needing this soon for my gear swap
Great video! I've been watching for this new video. Good meaningful content. I plan on regearing to 4.56 and installing a 8.8, your videos are making this possible, Thanks!
Thanks glad it helps!
Same here, are you planning on removing the dana30 axle and regear it on a bench or do it while underneath the jeep?
Nice Jeep! I think your paint pattern looks good. Good video as well!
Thanks!
Great detail. I'm watching and learning; soon, I'll be working on my 87 YJ. Thanks for sharing
Thanks, it was a challenge cutting down 4 hours of video into something this short that contained the important stuff haha
Great video. Jeep looks awesome!
Thanks!
Can't wait to see this thing wheel! 😍
You and me both!
Excellent video.
Nice job.I am building the same axles for my XJ.👍👍
Thanks, ready to knock out the 8.8. I've been told it's a pain compared to the 30 so we'll see.
Very helpful video, about to dive in on the gear swap myself. Would like to see a follow up going over the break in and how its been since.
Here you go!

Beautiful bro.
Thanks, glad to have this part done finally
nice job!
Thanks!
Any chance you have part numbers for the inner axle seals inside the diff housing? The driver-side one is hard to track down.
Well there are two different part numbers depending on what size you need. I bought both and mine ended up being the smaller one I think. Some YJs had a slightly larger inner tube diameter, some had a smaller inner tube diameter. ECGS has both-
ASI-D30-DISCO-ELIM-2.00
ASI-D30-DISCO-ELIM-2.06
Which bump stop extensions (gold ones) are u using on your yj? Great job on the D30 and 8.8. Just did the exact same
Thing to our yj.
They are the Skyjacker bumps that came with my lift. You can find them individually too though.
Hey man, great video! I’m in the process of doing the same thing right now with a hp Dana 30 from a 99 XJ. My question is where did you put the pinion depth shims? Your video makes it look like you put them between then oil baffle and the housing, but everything I’m seeing makes it look like they go between the baffle and the race. Thanks!
Yeah they went directly against the housing, then baffle, then race. That was how it was assembled by the factory when I started taking it apart. I don't think it matters though.
Video done cost me some money. Visited amazon and picked up some of them tools. Will be rebuilding and upgrading my dana 30 hp before long.
Haha thats how it goes
I'm starting mine this weekend, Have you started yours yet?
@@Spruce-Bug Not completely . I changed the inner/outers shafts, Used the East Coast molys .
Great job and editing was easy to watch. How much do you think you invested regearing and adding lockers?
Thanks! Gears and rebuild kits was 315 per axle, lockers were 250 each, new carrier for the 30 was around 100 I think. Add in oil and brake clean and total was around 1300.
Well I’m finally getting to do mine am glad I came to watch this again. Got it all apart today and had to see where all the shims and sligers went as it is much different than the D35. I can’t remember, did you delete the split axle? I see the solid cover so I’m assuming so. I went with the manual cable setup, gonna keep it split for now, but that means having to do the seal in that last section of axle I guess, after the box. (I’m guessing that’s how diff fluid gets to the disconnect box.) Not sure how to get that seal back in, long rod from drivers side? It actually still looks pretty good but hate not to do it and have it leak after all that work. I bought the axle end seals like you have but that won’t work on that side. I tried re-gearing my back D35 but screwed it up so I’m hoping to have better luck on this one. They said I didn’t have the inner pinion race knocked all the way in. 🤷♂️ Wish me luck.
Yeah I went with a one piece when I did the locker. You can do a long rod to knock that CAD seal in or use a piece of allthread and some big washers to pull it into place from the knuckle side. Good luck! Haha
First off, I love watching your videos as I’m building up my yj at the same time. One question for you. Pardon my ignorance if I missed something or don’t understand completely. Why is it that you check the torque on everything except the pinion nut? I see you checked the rotating preload torque, but not the actual torque on the nut.
There is no actual listed torque spec in the install manual from Yukon for the pinion nut, so I just used my impact to tighten it fully once I got the preload shims correct. If you wanted to use a torque wrench and make it somewhere around 200-250 that would be fine.

What are those red things on the ends of the axle tubes?
Tube seals
Why almost noone uses case spreader?
Those set up bearings come in the install kit?
No I got them separate from ECGS when I was ordering some other parts.
@@HardEarnedBacon so how do you ask for them or call them ? Like set up bearing for a Dana 30 or ?
@@douglasschock8014 You can call them and tell them what you need or just order it off their website, it is listed under the Gears/Install Kits menu, Dana 30 HP.
@@HardEarnedBacon thank you big help
What's the website btw
👌✌️👍😁
👍
I would have left it at 5thou backlash. Keep it tight…. 😉
I have a 95 YJ with 35" & 4:56 & arb .Perfect combo for the YJ . PS lock tight is needed on the pinion nut. Mine was installed by ( PROS ? ) with no lock tight . It came off while I was towing my Jeep. The only thing I could re use was the axels & Housing. Front driveshaft also destroyed 2,800$
Is Yukon junk?
I don't think so but I don't think they are better than anyone else either
Nice video bro, I have the 4.56 gears in a 96' yukon 3 times they failed on me in the road at 65 70 miles per hour any suggestions?
I've not heard anything good about Yukon lately.
