Features, Description, Q&A, Specs & Installation
More Torque and Power. The above-average gear ratio of the G2 8.5 in. & 8.6 in. Rear Ring Gear and Pinion Kit for 4.88 Gears effectively increases the torque available to your tires. This improves truck’s overall acceleration and performance when under load. The higher gear ratio also helps maintain speed when climbing steep roads or trails.
Made for Performance Application. G2’s Performance Series 8.5 in. & 8.6 in. Rear Ring Gear and Pinion Kit is made from forged 8620 steel known for its strength and wear-resistance. Both the ring and pinion were also heat-treated to meet the demands of driving in all environments. Although gears and pinions look like devices from the medieval era, these ring and pinions are actually carefully machined to strict OE specifications using an advanced manufacturing process and precision equipment to ensure a smooth finish and perfect fit.
Installation by a Mechanic is Highly Recommended. Transmission systems are complicated, and replacing parts requires specialized skills and tools. This is why installing this rear ring gear and pinion kit is a task best left to professionals or experienced gearheads. Review and follow the installation instructions for best results.
10 Years Limited Manufacturer Warranty. G2 warrants their gear and pinions to be free from workmanship and material defects for the period stated. Please refer to G2’s warranty policies for more details.
