How can I tell which axles ( font and rear) my stock 98 cherokee sport has. I have a class 5 hitch on the back and would like to know what I can tow. It did not come with a towing package so their is no break hookup. How can I add a towing package too. I saw a wire under the dash that was marked brakes,

8.25 chrysler. it has a flat flange at the bottom of the diff.

X2... If it has a flange that hangs down, and the cover is flat on the top and bottom rails.

If it looks like an oval serving platter, it's a D35.

The front is a D30 regardless.

and i believe your D30 is the High Pinion as well
