Re: Rear end

Get underneath and measure the axle tube diameter. the 8.25 rear has a 3 inch tube. The Dana rear has a 2.62 inch tube.

Useful information:

XJ's all have a Dana 30 axle in the front.

In the rear, the following are options for 1996:

Dana 35C with C-clips
Chrysler 8.25 (27 spline)

(Note on 8.25 axles - none of these axles were used on XJs with ABS brakes. If you have ABS, you have the Dana 35. Without ABS you could have either axle. 8.25 axles are c-clip)

Dana 35 c-clip - 27 spline, 1.18" diameter shafts, 7.58" ring gear, 2.62" axle tube - used 90-01

Chrysler 8.25 - 27 spline, 1.17" diameter shafts, 8.25" ring gear, 3" axle tube - used 91-96
