2000 jeep cherokee sport,,,,,,,,,,,, im sure its a dana 30 and when i opened it it had a standard cut ring,,,,,,and i would like to figure out if its a low pinion or high pinion or if it all is a d30

and this is me rear diff ,,,,,i was told it was d35 but after ordering wrong gears for both front and back ......i did a lil research and im sure its a chrysler 8.25

hope you guys can help me

 

All xj's came with d30's up front. Yours is low pinion bc its a 2000.

 

Thats a D35 rear axle.

Edit.. i could be wrong on that now that i see the lower lip.

 

Sorry I didnt't see the second part of the post my bad. It looks like a 8.25 to me. Kinda hard to tell if the bottom is flat or not. I could be wrong as well though.

 

That's an 8.25 rear. The angle of the pic makes it hard to see the flange, but its definitely an 8.25.

 

this ^ looks more like an 8.25 then a d35. also that 8.25 has 29splines! great rear axle!

 

yes that is an 8.25 look at the rubber plug for checking fluid

 

 

thanx guys i appreciate the help,,,,,,,so let me get this right .....i have a d30 standard cut low pinion? with a 8.25 rear? is that correct?

 

Yes... that looks to be correct.

 

THANK YOU

 

yes thats correct!

 

Besides the year of your xj, the location of the drain plug tells me its a LP. Its alot lower then the HP.

 

dana 35 also has a rubber plug.

easy way to tell, if it has abs, it's a d35.
