Overview
The G2 Axle and Gear 1-2026-373 is a front ring and pinion gear set with a 3.73 ratio for a Chrysler 9.25 inch front axle. The gears sit inside the differential and set the final drive ratio for the front axle.
The O.E.M. series gears are designed to run cooler and quieter, and they are made in cooperation with original equipment manufacturers. The set is matched by axle type.

Running a 9.25 front gear set
A front axle gear set carries drive into the steering axle and must be set for the bearing preload and pinion depth used in the housing. On a 9.25 inch front, the carrier and pinion bearings are sized for the load, so keep the housing clean and use fresh gear oil after setup. Tooth contact and backlash should be checked before the front axle returns to use.
Front gears see load during four-wheel drive, steering and braking, so look for wear after hard use. A slow whine, clunk or leak at the front seal often means the setup needs attention. Keep the front driveline inspected along with the joints and the front seal, since these work together to keep the gears properly lubricated.
- Check tooth contact before returning to service
- Refill with fresh gear oil after setup
- Watch for whine or leaks at the front seal
