I don't have any right now. I can go in a few weeks & get some. I'll pm you then. Payment is made thru PayPal.

I am positive now that my 97 XJ with ABS has a Dana 35. Big David, won't I need the ABS ring from the ZJ axle as well as the sensors to make the ABS work with the disk brakes? I found a write up where someone cut away a part of the axle flange to make the setup work (not enough clearance for the ZJ sensor) and simply used the ZJ axles.

I will be getting more kits at the end of the month. I have 9 on the list & will get as many as I can.

No, I don't lick fish.
D35/C8.25 rear axles are not specific to a year... the good news is, if you don't know what axle you have, all you have to do is grind the center bore of the plate out a little with a dremel or a die-grinder.

Thanks
The only difference in these kits is for what rear axle. The Chrysler 8.25 has a larger axle tube so the bore on the backing plate needs to be larger.

Any time..
Easiest way to find out is to just look under your Jeep at the diff cover:
and in addition to that pill-shape of the Chrysler 8.25, there's a flat spot on the bottom of the diff housing:
