SF Bay Area Shop - Re-gear to 4.88?

I went with Yukon with the warranty per their recommendation. I ordered through them and they received the parts a few weeks prior to my appointment. Here's my total:

 

I'm about 1,000 miles post-install and no issues whatsoever. I did do this mod so that my speedometer is now much more accurate. It was off by 10-15 mph and now it's off by 2-3 mph. https://adventuretaco.com/replacing-the-speedo-gear/

 

Super - I really appreciate the information! So all in all you are happy with the new gearing? Anything you would do different? What sort of gas mileage change did you notice, if any?

 

Happy so far, yes. With my larger tires (33's + GFC) truck pulls/feels more like stock than before. I honestly haven't calculated my recent MPG so can't speak to that yet.

 

They charged you $60 for a warranty?

 

This was for the rear diff lifetime warranty via Yukon. Though the site lists it as $45 so not sure why they told me it’s $60. Maybe $60 covers both front and rear?

Call and ask the shop if you have specific questions.

 

I got mine done at Hunters in Sac. Had 5.29 nitro installed, front ARB locker, and a dual air compressor under the hood. The labor came out to be like $1,670.

 

Oh wow.
That’s $940 cheaper than the shop I was looking at in Scott’s Valley which is 8 miles from where I live.

Including round trip with Uber that’s $766 less.
