i have an 88 cherokee and i just got my 6.5" lift, and 35" tires in the mail. i was told i have to use a Dana 44 in the rear cause i would just snap my d35 with a detroit and 4.56 gears. is the driveshaft different from the d35 one? so i need to get a swap? i was gonna get a slip yoke eliminator and custom CV drive shaft...so do i need different u-joints in the driveshaft at the axle end? cause i will be runing my stock driveshaft for like 3 months till i get the SYE or should i get it right away?

 

you could get a ford 8.8 and that would probably work. thats what i'm gonna do with mine...when i do i'll sell ya my C8.25

 

no there the same... i stuck my Dana44 under last month... there the same... may stick into the tranny alittle more then it used to but thars it... and thats a good thing... do the Dana44 swap if u can find one... and yeah u will need it...
