      Description

      Superior Performance Gears. Push your Wrangler to the limit and boost its performance with the Nitro Gear & Axle Dana 44 Front Ring Gear and Pinion Kit. Its high-quality 4.88 gear ratio places you much quicker in the power band, improving your torque and overall fuel economy. As a result, you get better mileage and performance.

      Re-Gear to Retain Efficiency. Increasing the size of your tires also increases its rolling diameter, which pushes the engines to work double-time to keep up. This increase in engine work consumes more fuel and decreases your performance. The good thing is, the Nitro Gear & Axle Dana 44 Front Ring Gear and Pinion Kit is here to match your rig’s new tires, resulting in recovered performance and better fuel economy.

      Premium Construction. The Nitro Gear & Axle Dana 44 Front Ring Gear and Pinion Kit is fashioned from state-of-the-art 8620 steel gear forgings to ensure the highest quality available. Additionally, Nitro Gear also bundles this product with a 2-year warranty, guaranteeing your satisfaction.

      Professional Installation Only. Ring and Pinion gear installation is a complex process, and it is recommended that you seek professional help. Follow the supplied instructions for best results.

      2-Year Warranty Policy. The Nitro Gear & Axle Dana 44 Front Ring Gear and Pinion Kit comes with a 2-year warranty that protects against quality issues and begins on the first date of purchase. You also need to provide set-up specifications. Please see the manufacturer’s website to check their full terms and conditions.

      Application. The Nitro Gear & Axle Dana 44 Front Ring Gear and Pinion Kit is designed for use on all 2007-2018 Wrangler JK Rubicons.

      Technical Note. Please be reminded that JK Gears are thicker than typical Dana 44 gears. JK differentials only fit 3.73 & lower Dana 44 carriers. In addition, JK Gears also have larger ring gear bolts than standard Dana 44 gears. Carrier ring gear bolt holes may need to be drilled larger.
