Are we talking front or back? Every Cherokee ever built for the North Amereican Market has the Dana 30 in front, your rear could either be a Chrysler 8.25 or a Dana 35.
Look up some pictures on google if you arent sure which.

No, All the ABS and pre ~91 XJ's had D35's (or like some late 80's tow package ones had D44's), MOST, but not all of the other non ABS ones have 8.25's.
I have a 4.0/auto and mine came with a 8.25.

Axle tags are steel and bolted on your diff cover, it might actually still be on there. All they have is your gear ratio, what kind of axle it is, whether you have a limited slip or not and a part number.

If its a Dana 35, don't put any money into it, you can dump a couple grand and get an axle as strong as a stock Dana 44,

Since he said he was getting a locker I'm assuming its gonna get some trail time, but yes for on road a d35 is fine. Its what I got right now, till I get my ford 8.8

If it has a flat bottom to it its a Chrysler, if its got a round bottom its a dana 35, and if its got a Vee shape to it its a Dana 44, but unless someone swapped a 44 in from a 87, its a 35 or chrysler 8 1/4.
