4 Wheel Parts did my lift. I want to stick with them for all of my work if I can. They don't carry Yukon but do carry G2. I went on the website to see how much gears are and they don't appear to have any G2 4.56 that fit a 9.75 (12 bolt) rear differential. Dont appear to be many options for the 2011+ F150's.....

I just got off the phone with 4 Wheel Parts. According to them, they spoke to G2 and the 4.56's are in the process of being produced. However, he said it would probably be AT LEAST 90 days before any are available....

I talked to Yukon and they suggested a shop to me in Calhoun, GA. I just got off the phone with the shop. According to them, the main difference beween the pre 2011 gears and the 2011+ gears is the diameter of the shaft on the pinion.
The older gears have a smaller diameter than the 2011+ gears. They think that they can take a pre 2011 4.56 gear set and put a bearing kit on it....giving the pinion shaft the extra diameter that it needs to fit. Conceptually, it makes sense to me. He seems to think that this will be an easy solution to the problem. I'm a little wary....but this was the top suggested shop by Yukon.
We will see what happens....
