Jeep Wrangler Differential Install Kit - Rear - Revolution Gear & Axle - Timken Bearing 4.88 Ratio - 96-02. A dedicated rear differential install and gear package engineered for 1996–2002 Jeep Wrangler TJ applications with Dana 44 rear axles, provided by Revolution Gear & Axle.

This kit pairs a 4.88 ring-and-pinion ratio with Timken bearings to support heavier loads and lower gearing needs common with larger tires and vehicle modifications. It is intended for owners who want a reliable, direct-fit solution for replacing or upgrading rear gears on Dana 44 housings. The 4.88 ratio offers noticeably stronger low-end torque compared with higher (numerically lower) gears, helping with trail crawling, towing, and off-road acceleration when paired with appropriate tires and drivetrain setup.
