Installing the Yukon Spin Free Kit with Ian Johnson 

Brings me back to the days of extreme off road when they had a red dodge will a full banks kit and when jessi combs was with ian and still alive

I like the quick cut on pulling the second u-joint cap as you watched the needle bearings slide out

Was it just me, or did it appear that when Ian was disassembling the U-Joints, that he destroyed the zerk fitting? Otherwise I liked the video.

Awesome job and good timing I need to replace my u-joints seems like a perfect time to do this mod

Just purchased this kit for my 03 5.9 six speed. Really excited to get rid of the unit bearing and get true 2wd on a 4x4.

And if your running aftermarket wheels make sure they will clear. And / or cut a giant hole in your OEM hub caps.

Broke the grease zero off of the joint! Not reusable and didn't put a new one back in at all! And didn't address this issue whatsoever!

what about pulling the Zerk fitting before you snap it off beating the spider cups out? didn't see a new one installed in the reassembly shot now where are my easyouts ?

Installing my hubs. I had to replace my ball joints and i am replacing the axle joints also. Just have to finish the install tomorrow!!!

2009 power wagon is so much better after Yukon and Thuren upgrades it is a pleasure to drive

I replaced my unibearing 50k miles ago on my 200k miles truck but if the price were not that high I would do this retro fit but tinkem bearing are holding just fine. For $1200 I think makes it more reasonable.

DON’T FORGET TO PUT SHIMS IN NEW STUB SHAFT U JOINT WHEN INSTALLING U JOINT. They left that part out of the video and i had to take my u joint back out to put the shims under the u joint clips

Haha try that up here in the north! We have rust! Lots of it! Lol

So whats to stop me from pulling my front driveshaft out? Seems like this is still going to make my front diff spin..

I thought the central axle disconnect worked well in the Dana 60. I miss that axle.

Doing this now on my pickup, your video was helpful.

Awesome job Ian. Best mod ever.

Nice video and to the point. So many drag this job out into 2-3 20 mins a piece videos

I have this same truck in the video, but cannot find this kit anywhere.... WTF

After watching this.....i'm gonna buy me the Ram man. Way easier and proven. Whew. This was a hard video to watch LOL.

I love how this new junk has to go back to old technology

Are you have problems with the wheel bearing coming loose?

So the pass side inner axle stays 2 piece and still needs a vacuum engagement for 4x4 to work?

For $1500 its going to take a long time to recoup the investment on maybe a 1mpg fuel saving. Seems like a nice kit however. I think if you keep up with good bearing maintenance you could prob save a few hub replacements over the years as well

Awesome stuff 😎

Nice. Well done and well explained, thanks.

I didn't see the dust shield being reinstalled. Is that part left off with this kit?

So basically whats old is new again?

I enjoyed this video, awesome job!

Well I adding a 2001 front axle assembly to my 95 dodge 2500 4x4 diesel. I doing this to have third generation brakes and have the rotors that slide on from the front. I all ready ordered the cad delete kit and going to use a spin free Timken bearing kit . I think the yukon kit will work for me . Can I buy a kit with Warren hubs or is that possible. Thanks

What about the center cap? How'd you fix that?

Where can I find the socket / special tools that I would need to install this

I did not look at this kit cost. That being said all these Guys that have to put 3 to $5,000 in tires and wheels on their pickups to look Cool and then maybe they're Heads need to be deflated that's a pretty price to pay to look cool!! And not have a lockouts on their truck lots wear and tear on their front end. And what I'm saying is they can put this money towards the lockout hub kit instead of pissing it away on tires and wheels!! Dodge could make an option to come from the Factory with Lockouts!!!

Great Tutorial!

Is this a Gm Dana 60 hub?

Does anyone know the difference between for 2004 Dodge Ram 3500 free spin kit DRW vs SRW kit?

Is it a new spindle or do you use the old one.

I wonder if I can do that to my Jeep jk 2015 ?

¿Does Yukon make an entire free-spin front axle assembly that I can just bolt on? I ask this because I want to keep my stock front axle all Mopar and just put it aside. The other reason I ask this is because I'm thinking if Yukon does, then it would be a solid axle shaft from on the right side; the center axle disconnect is not necessary if it has outboard locking hubs. It would also be easier to bolt on the entire assembly, AND, everything is brand new & there's no mixing and matching if I were to just modify the stock front axle. I have a 2018 Ram 3500 Single-Rear-Wheel (SRW) with the 6.4 Hemi & the 4.10 gears.

Was there an actual tracking to see what gains on the MPG if there were any?

Can I put this part on a 4x4 Ram 1500?

Great kit minus the length of the hub sticking out of your nice wheels 🤮

Can anyone help grease my shaft ???

Whell y tire?

Lol its like a semi truck

I used to watch his show to see how much he screwed up, turned out his crappy fab work screwed up Jessi😞

$1500 mod that will not come close to saving money on wear and tear in the differential. that price assumes you install yourself.
