high pinon dana 30 swap for low pinon dana 30

I have to replace my low pinon dana 30 on my 2001 xj w/o anti lock brakes.I was thinking about using a high pinon dana 30 out of a 98 with anti lock brakes.I know the brakes woul'nt function like anti locks , any other possible problems ? Low pinon 30's are hard to get around here.

It will actually be a stronger front axle and keep your shafts, unit bearing etc because they swap over. Everything except the ring and pinion are the same. If it came out of a early 90 or older model your shafts will be stronger and I would use them.
