Frequently Asked Questions
What vehicles does AK C10 fit?
The AK C10 is designed for Chevrolet and GMC C/K 1500-series half-ton trucks, Suburbans, Tahoe, and Yukon models from approximately 1988-1999 that use the 2.800in OD axle bearing configuration in the C10 Aero-style rear axle housing.
What does the 2.800in OD refer to?
The 2.800in refers to the outer diameter of the axle bearing used in the AK C10 application. Measuring or confirming your axle housing tube ID before ordering ensures you receive the correct bearing size.
Does AK C10 include a pinion seal?
No. The AK C10 covers axle tube end bearing and seal components only. Pinion components are not included.
How many kits do I need?
The AK C10 covers one axle end. Order two to service both sides of the rear axle.
Is AK C10 compatible with aftermarket axle shafts?
Yes, provided the aftermarket axle shaft uses the same 2.800in OD bearing specification as the OEM C10 Aero-style application.
Does Yukon Gear's warranty cover AK C10?
Yes. The AK C10 is covered by Yukon Gear's limited warranty against manufacturing defects. Under the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, using aftermarket parts like AK C10 does not void your vehicle manufacturer's warranty on unrelated components.
What are the signs of a failing axle bearing on a C10 or C1500?
Common symptoms include humming or grinding from the rear axle area at speed, excessive heat near the axle tube end, and differential fluid visible around the axle tube or contaminating the brakes. Replacing worn bearings promptly with AK C10 prevents axle shaft damage and brake contamination.
Can AK C10 be installed without removing the differential?
Yes. Axle bearing replacement on the C10 Aero-style axle can be performed without removing the differential. The axle shaft is removed, the bearing is pressed off and on the axle shaft, and the seal is replaced in the housing tube.
Installation Instructions
- Safely raise and support the vehicle; remove the wheel and tire assembly.
- Remove the brake drum or caliper and rotor to access the axle flange.
- Remove the axle shaft retaining hardware and withdraw the axle shaft from the housing tube.
- Press off the old axle bearing from the axle shaft using a bearing press.
- Remove and discard the old axle seal from the housing tube.
- Clean the housing tube bore and seal surface thoroughly.
- Drive the new axle seal from AK C10 into position in the housing tube using a proper seal driver.
- Press the new 2.800in OD axle bearing onto the axle shaft using a bearing press to the correct depth.
- Reinstall the axle shaft, torque retaining hardware to specification, and reinstall brake components.
- Reinstall the wheel assembly and verify differential fluid level.
