How do I find out what diferential I have in the rear of my 1994 Cherokee. I'm looking for a 3" lift kit and some companies ask rear end type. Any sugestions on brand. With or with out rear springs,or blocks? I like the look . Dont plan on taking it off road. Thanks

It is either a D35 0r chrysler 8.25,the 8.25 will be square on the bottom of the carrier not the cover and it will have 3" tubes.

well first of all try this https://www.cherokeeforum.com/search.php

second of all go with the full leaf packs, it will be worth the extra money.

and you will have a dana 35 or a chrysler 8.25, the dana will have a rubber plug that has a triangle and will say dana on it. the chrysler 8.25 is flat on the bottom.

+1 on going with brand new full leaf packs. Taking apart your old leaf packs to put the addon leafs in there isn't fun, and since your old springs are likely tired anyway, you might as well replace them with something new.
