How do I tell if my Dana 30 front end is high or low pinion?

If the pinion comes out of the center its low, if it comes out of the top its high.

Chances are you have a high pinion unless it was swapped. This is the XJ in your sig, yes?

Low pinions only came in Wranglers, Grand Cherokees, and 2000/2001 Cherokees.
