The amount of gravel you drive on should be minimal -- just repair areas -- but keep your speed down and you shouldn't kick up anything that would damage the underside (e.g. gas tank or radiator).
Last time I did the drive the lousiest section was between Beaver Creek and the AK border. I understand that's all been regraded and straightened out.
I'd recommend a detour to Skagway, then take the ferry over to Haines and drive back up to catch the Alaska Hwy at Haines Junction. Spectacular scenery all the way.
By the way, does anyone ever put tubes in tires anymore for trips like this?
