Looking
for the ultimate in off-road performance? Yukon offers two sizes of its
super-strong replacement axle ujoints (Spicer 44 & 60). The bodies are
made from forged 4340 chrome-moly which is through-hardened for ultimate
yield and tensile strength. After hardening, the body is then coated with
titanium nitrite. This coating provides an extremely hard surface to
protect against wear. The caps are made from cold-extruded 4140
chrome-moly. They are then induction-hardened to provide maximum strength
without becoming brittle. This design doesn’t utilize needle bearings so
it relies on offset hardnesses to protect against wear. With this design
the caps will wear out first and can be replaced at a lower cost than
buying a new u-joint. Yukon offers a lifetime warranty against breakage of
the BODY CROSS-SECTION ONLY.
