help identifying gear brand

I order front and rear 5.29's and setup kits. The gears were supposed to be us gear 5.29's and yukon setup kits. They arrived today and apon opening the gears boxes they seem to be marked YG or yukon gear.

I did some research and have been lookign over zuks website when i cam across this install
http://http://www.gearinstalls.com/kevin.htm

part way down the page is shows the id on the side of the ring gear
It reads G6 YG T8-529 304 the only other thign seems to be a "538" writtten in fine black sharpy.

My ring gears has the same code, a yukon one that is, but zuk seemed to identify the gears as "us gear" by the white sharpie 12 written on them.


Im just trying to figure out what the gears really are? And whether i scored yukons in the wrong box? And so i can search through zuks pages and get a good starting place for shim values when i set em up depending on what brand they are?

Yukon doesn't make gears - they rebox other people's. Richmond are the most common, followed by USGear and Precision Gear. Post up pix of the stamping/marking on the ring gear.
