Yukon Gear YP C5-GM8.0 Steel Cover For GM 8.5″ Rear
Yukon Gear steel differential covers replace weak factory units on GM 8.5-inch 10-bolt rear axles in popular Chevy GMC Buick Isuzu Hummer Saab Oldsmobile models from 2000 to 2012. This stamped steel cover adds gear oil capacity for improved cooling and lubrication under heavy loads or off-road use. Its ribbed design reinforces the carrier housing for long-term reliability.

- Ribbed Reinforcement – Internal ribs increase carrier rigidity and strength
- Complete Kit – Gasket and mounting bolts included for easy bolt-on install
- Black Powder Coat – Durable finish prevents rust and corrosion
