Once you get a chance to go take a look you can use this little chart to compare the 8.25 and the D35:

Hope it helps!

That is a great chart. I printed it and keep it taped inside the lid to my toolbox. Comes in handy while on a J/Y trip.

I love that little chart. it has solved many a "what axle do i have?" threads on a couple different forum, haha. It sure helped me identify which axle I had. Good idea on keeping it with the tools for JY digging, I may just do that as well...
