I am replacing the stock 8" sub in my Yukon with an Infinity Ref 850W 8" sub. The stock sub is 2ohm and the Infinity is 4ohm. Is it ok to do that?

Sure. It will probably not be quite as loud.

OK, thanks. That's what I thought.
I'm going to be installing amps and stuff a little later so it won't matter, but want to replace the speakers now.
