I love Yukon, Robert kicks *** as a distributor too. Awesome guy, met him when I bought his old jeep axles. Honest, good service, good prices, always answers my texts even if I'm not buying anything. He's also a good person to ask about differences between gear manufactures/brands

I bought my chromoly shafts, gears and lockers from Robert at rwkhaussupply. Great prices, great customer service. And great response via email. Nothing but good things to say about him.

Atmos, I wasn't sure until now. YOU were the person that I saw mention RWK. I was almost sure it was you but didn't want to throw it out there and look like an idiot. Anyway, I ordered my gears from him earlier today.

I've made some big steps over that last couple weeks. I installed my JCR rear tire carrier bumper that's been sitting in my garage for MONTHS. My JCR winch bumper arrived today (I won't be waiting to install it). My winch arrived last week. And I ordered gears today. I'm stoked to get back to working on my Jeep after a hiatus from buying another house and moving. I'm getting married in October so I see another hiatus on the horizon.

Thanks everyone for your two cents and guidance. I've been grinding away at modifying my jeep for several years and this site has helped me tremendously.

How much? Rwk wants $120 for tax and shipping on their gear set. That seems absurd.

$71.41 by my count and still came out under the average price before taxes.

Some people get to hung up on shipping, it is what it is sometimes depends on what you need.


Have you decided on lockers for yours yet?

I haven't. I'm going to wait on lockers for now. I've dropped some serious money over the past couple weeks. I know I'll end up doing the work again with the gears but my brother's helping me with the install so I'll just deal with it when the time comes. I'm open to opinions on lockers though. I've never dealt with them before so I'll need to learn the ropes for when the time comes to get them.

If you don't install a full case locker when you install the new gears in the D30 you will have to buy a new Carrier for the 4.88's to install them. If you don't use a full case locker you will still need one with most all the other non-full case lockers.

Yeah, I went ahead and got a carrier. I'll lock it later down the road.
