Product details

The flat yoke is the split to watch on this one, which is listed as a remanufactured GM 7.2 IFS front carrier for 1997-1998 GMC Astro and Safari at a 3.73 ratio. The application notes record ratio option GT4 and a GM 7.25 inch ring gear, while the title and the ring gear field read 7.2; the record disagrees with itself on that measurement, so confirm the size you need before ordering. Vendor SKU is RAA440-1318B. Match your ratio tag too, since front and rear have to agree.

Application notes

Ratio: 3.73; GM 7.25 Inch Ring Gear, IFS, Ratio Option GT4.

Every differential and axle assembly we sell is fully remanufactured to meet or exceed OEM specifications. Our remanufacturing process:
  • Deep Clean – To start the remanufacturing process, each unit is fully disassembled and cleaned.
  • Inspection – The ring and pinion, internal gears, clutches and carriers are carefully inspected. Gears are checked for proper tooth contact, and axle tubes are inspected for straightness.
  • New Components – All seals and bearings are replaced, and gears are reset for correct rolling torque for maximum efficiency and performance. Backlash is reset carefully for maximum longevity and quiet operation.
  • Validation – After reassembly, each unit is spin tested as part of a detailed checklist validation process.
Every differential and axle assembly carries a 6-month limited warranty as standard. A 7-year / 1,000,000-mile extended warranty and a core-fee waiver are available on request for qualifying remanufactured units — ask us before you order and we will confirm eligibility.

Full details: our remanufacturing process and warranty terms. As an exchange unit a refundable core charge may apply.
