i have a question will a Chrysler 8.25 in back work with a Dana 30 in front

 

Um... if you have a 8.25 in the back, you have a D30 in the front...

 

If you are talking about swapping in a 8.25 in back and taking out the D35 it should swap in as long as the axle is out of a xj. but, you also need to keep in mind if the gears are the same front and rear.

If you have a cherokee, you have a D30 up front already. Unless you bought some hybrid that someone was creating.

 

it has a dana 30 and 35 in back now i found a8.25 for dirty cheap

 

iif both vechicles have the same trans you might get lucky with the gears and the motor size being the same is a plus

 

this is what i know about it Chrysler 8.25 rear axle from a 97 Jeep Cherokee. This has 3.55 gears, open diff, and 29 spline axle shafts. i have a 98 with 4.0, the guy has the same 4.0

 

are they both automatics

 

that i dont know but will ask when i talk to him in the morning, thanks for all the help. when i find out i will post it

 

odds are they are the same gears

 

there should be a little tab on the dana 30 dif cover that is held on by 2 bolts. on there it should say the size of your gears on it. it should look like this:
