Review: Decent Gears - Was able to shim this enough to fit a Subaru BRZ differential carrier (gear was not made to fit this case) and get things close enough to run. Backlash was consistent in the multiple spots checked. Have beat on them for 2 years without issue; track days, burnouts with wheel hop, etc
Review: Tough as Nails - Yukon didn't disappoint! Always great quality.
