Overview
The G2 Axle and Gear Chrysler 8.25-inch master ring and pinion installation kit, part number 35-2029B, is a ring and pinion kit made for the Chrysler 8.25-inch axle in model years 05-10. No vehicle make or model is identified.
A master installation kit is generally used when a ring and pinion set is replaced, so the gear setup has to match the axle. Check the axle housing and carrier against the kit before starting any work.
Choosing a gear kit
A ring and pinion set works as a matched pair, so the gear ratio, pinion and carrier all have to suit the axle they go into. Before buying, identify the axle housing and carrier and confirm they match the kit. While the carrier is out, check its bearings, bearing caps and shims for wear, because worn bearings can let a fresh gear set drift out of setup.
Replacing gears is usually a full job rather than a single part swap. Plan for new pinion bearings, seals, a fresh pinion nut and crush sleeve, and gear oil once setup is finished. After installation, expect a break-in period: keep speeds moderate for the first stretch of driving and watch for whine, heat or leaks.
- Identify the axle housing and carrier before ordering
- Check carrier bearings and shims for wear
- Budget for seals, pinion nut and gear oil
- Keep a record of the pinion setup for later service
