my friend and i are in the process of installing a yukon 4.56 ring and pinion in my 1999 sport.he is the more mechanically inclined person when it comes to rears.the rear diff was rebuilt about a year ago with ally usa 29 spline shafts,detroit locker and 4.11 gears.well,my friend says that the yukon ring gear is about 1/4 inch too thick to be installed.this just doesn't sound right to me.does anyone have any tips/suggestions for the install? i have a feeling that we're missing something (procedure wise).has anyone ever heard of anything like this? any help would be greatly appreciated.i want my rig back on the road! thanks,lee

You'll have to grind down a tooth or two to get the crosshaft back in.:cheers:
 
Should be straight forward,unless you got sent gears for some other axle!

Yes,when installing the ring gear,try to index it so the crosshaft falls between 2 teeth.

4.11 suck. Grinding the teeth does nothing to hurt the integrity of the gear.

canman,you are so right,the 4.11's do suck,big time! especially since i'm running 33's.its funny that you mention hurting the integrity by grinding cause that was my only concern about grinding.now that i see thats its been done before,with no ill effects,i cant wait to get my grinder out 2moro!
lol,glad i made you guys laugh! why is it that theres always some troll on the internet?all i'm tryin to do is get answer an and everyone is helpful and courteous.then you run into people dribbling out useless comments.oh well,i uess thats part and parcel of communicating on the internet.

Yup I'm in the middle of doing that WJ brake knuckle and steering swap. What a PIA:gag:. I'm sure it'll be worth it in the end. Speaking of the stats I have someupdating to do to my sig.

Just grind the gear, no biggie.
