Auto Parts: YG GM8.2-355 - High performance Yukon Ring & Pinion gear set for GM 8.2 in a 3.55 ratio. Yukon exclusively uses 8620 steel in all their Ring & Pinion sets for high strength and long life. They use the latest designs and manufacturing tech
Auto Parts: RG 49-0015 - Richmond Gear ring & pinion gear set for GM 8.2 in 3.55 ratio. Richmond Gear has long been a staple in the performance gear market place with products geared towards the racing market. Their gears are made strong to withstand
