hi folks i got a 2000 XJ and my rear drive shaft got ****ed up and i was going to change it with my 94 drive shaft but the 94 drive shaft was an inch and a half too long or so so my real question is what year XJ drive shafts were the same as a 2000 drive shaft going to the junk yard tommorow so if anyone knows thanks for the help guys

 

i dont want to run the one off the 94 bc worried about it binding up

 

What axle do you have on your jeep? A C8.25 or D35?

 

c8.25

 

I don't wanna say this is a fact, but a lot of congruency goes from the 96 to the 04. I would assume that drive shafts would be the same in those years, as they can trade a lot between them. Hope this helps a little in the right direction.

Good Luck.

 

I meant rear axle? I have the service manual I might be able to look it for you. Or email it to you.

 

what do u mean til 04 xj was 84-01

 

yes the rear axle is a c8.25 its actually its out of a 98 jeep but its in my 2000

 

I am looking in the manual to see if having the NV242 or NV231 t-case makes any difference. If you want I can send you the manuals, it is a good thing to have.

 

ya sounds good dose it say the interchangeable years of drive shafts i can use

 

I tells you everything you need to know about your jeep. But it is a bit hard to fing, the manual has over 800 pages. lol

 

haha send it

 

I know that the NV242 t-case has the 2wd/4wdhi part time/4xdhi full time and 4wd low and the NV231 t-case does not have the 4wdhi partime. That should make difference I think.

 

send me your email

 

so thats how u tell what drive shaft their is in a jy jeep ? makes sense i got both kinds and they both diff legnths
