Yukon Gear & Axle Dura Grip Limited Slip Differential Positraction, 30-Spline, 3.73 & Down Ratios, Compatible with Dana 44 Axle, YDGD44-3-30-1

Updated at bottom.. I didn't just randomly decide to upgrade...this was more a question of what to replace existing yet failing parts with. My 2000 dodge 1500 4x4 was making noises I didn't like... we popped the rear pumpkin and discovered the issue after noticing HUGE driveline rotational play. My differential spiders were definitely on the way out fast...and apparently decided to wallow out the carrier at the same time. Ok I need to get the best value for money spent....would prefer easy to install and while I can accept a higher noise level I would rather not most times. Yet if I could up the off road performance a bit that would be nice. So their went the lockers... more expensive more noise.... The cost difference between a replacement carrier and spider assembly and a LSD wasn't that much. The cost of a lunchbox locker and carrier made that and the mini spool and carrier fall off the table as well as sound and on road issues. So I chose this... as my ring and pinion were just fine.... we set the lash at 0.0055" play and lubed up the rear end with 80-90 conventional as required by yukon and the LSD additive. Over an open differential it's a big step up. Over a failing open differential it's a huge step up. Now my DD/hunting/fishing rig is more capable and for roughly $60 more than replacing the entire dif with an open one I got added traction. Thanks yukon. Approx 1 week later Still happy with it.... it makes a big difference in offroad and on road handling. Yes it opens when not under load but if hard cornering with heavy throttle on a slippery surface (hard packed dirt road....sandy tarmac) expect both rear wheels to break loose and a drift or powerslide to start. Not a bad thing and definitely improves throttle steering but it does change the handling and you should be aware of it. I do realize I drive harder and more confidently than many people especially offroad... and that most folks are just happy to get there they don't need to have fun while getting there quickly....but I do.

Well built. Works great. Installed in my truck for towing and in-the-woods hauling capabilities, replacing a stock open carrier. No issues, and I have put about 200 miles on it since the install (don't drive that truck much). No abnormal noises.

Good price, free shipping and it's a yukon so I know it's strong.

This is the second rear end we have had to replace in my 05 sierra with 400k miles, so far we have had no problems with it.. the company's customer service team was absolutely outstanding when i had trouble with my purchase of their $40 lifetime guarantee for this part. My card was saying I had been charged twice, but the gentleman made sure I wasn't and even shipped the card for the warranty next day for 100% free! then called me again to tell me he had the tech people check just to be sure. I cannot say enough good things about this company and the people working there! definitely would buy again if i didn't have the warranty for it!

Installed in my 1963 c10. Factory 10 bolt rear. I’ve use Yukon products for years and they are very strong. Install was smooth and came with good direction/instruction. Also very clear of what oil to run with it. When installing your axles, it is very tight getting c-clips inside the carrier. It’s suppose to be. Take your time and have a helper push the wheel end of the axle toward the carrier if needed.

Works very well, clutches are tight!!! though. Occasionally hops around turns.

Made my Excursion hook up harder than some elastic tubing on a junkies arm! 100% would by again!

Big difference kicks ass well worth it

Muy satisfecho, calidad, precio y todo en tiempo

Excelente Producto RECOMIENDO este producto

trabaja muy bien recuerda usar aceite no sintético.

Bought this over a year ago for my B4000 with a 8.8 with yukons seperate kit containing seals and bearings. So far I've put around 40k km on the unit and have had no major issues, works greats in snow, mud and rainy conditions. I did use the friction modifier and replacing the fluid after a break in period. Only issue I've had since installing was the diff housing leaking when using the cork gasket provided in the seperate kit. Install wasn't to bad. Would recommend it to anyone searching or would purchase again if needed.

Great price and works good!! Installed when I upgraded to disk brakes and rebuilt my rear end. No complaints
