Most common is 3.55 but some have been seen with 3.73 and I think even 4.10's but don't quote me..I do know that 3.55 is the most common for automatics.

If you have a 4.0 liter, it's a 99% chance of 3.55s. If you have a 2.5, it's prolly 4.10s. HTH!!

So basically I need to find an XJ with a 2.5 and 4.10 front and rear axles and I'd be set...

Yeah, from what I understand. If I'm wrong please feel free to correct me, I don't claim to know everything.

I would be careful. With the 4.0 im almost betting that you have a 3.07 gear ratio. thats what my '93 had
