Yukon Ford 9" Tapered Axle Bearing & Seal Kit - 3.150" OD
YUKAK SET20
The Yukon Tapered Axle Bearing and Seal Kit is designed to restore proper axle shaft support and sealing performance in heavy-duty rear axle applications. Featuring a tapered roller bearing design, this kit provides improved load handling and durability compared to standard ball-style axle bearings. It's an ideal solution for replacing worn axle bearings, correcting axle shaft play, and preventing gear oil leaks in street, towing, and off-road vehicles.
Built with premium-quality bearings and seals, this kit services one axle side and is engineered for long service life under demanding conditions. The tapered roller bearing distributes loads more evenly across the bearing surface, improving axle stability and reducing wear in high-load applications.
Includes:
- (1) Tapered Roller Axle Bearing
- (1) Axle Seal
- Services One Axle Side

Tech Insight
Tapered roller bearings are preferred in heavy-duty axle applications because they support both radial and axial loads far more effectively than conventional ball bearings. This increased load capacity improves axle stability under towing, rock crawling, racing, and other high-stress driving conditions while reducing bearing wear.
Whenever replacing axle bearings, it's recommended to install new axle seals at the same time. Also inspect the axle shaft bearing journal for grooves or wear, as a damaged shaft can quickly ruin a new bearing or seal and lead to premature gear oil leaks.
