So I have searched and searched and found nothing. Why does no one make a crush eliminator kit for JT? Does anyone know of a shop that makes them?

I wish someone one would. That and that nitro gear and axle would make 4.30 gears for the front as well. They have them for the rear but not the front. Maybe if more people would call them and ask them too they would get on the ball and make them.

I can't imagine the demand for 4.30's is that high; it's not a step enough up from 4.10's, and 4.56's would be so similar in stepping up from 3.73's that the hole makes sense.

I've only done a couple of Ford rear ends, is the money for a crush sleeve eliminator kit really worth it?

4.30's would be perfect imo for near stock sized tires (I'm talking manual). It puts 6th just a hair shorter than what 5th is on 3.73's, which is just right in my experience for having a little hill climbing power on the highway and still getting good mpg on low load flat ground cruising.

4.30s would be perfect for the diesel with 37s or 38s. And getting rid of the crush sleeve is always a good idea

Well I am sure there was limited development because of the double ball bearing on the outer, but now you can use a taper kit, so a elimator kit could work. Wonder if you can use a older kit if it has the correct pinion dimensions.

Might have to call Yukon to see if they can cross references something.

A question is who has a used crush sleeve that's not mangled and a lathe. I'd like to have one possibly to have a hand.
