It HAS to be a Dana 30 unless it has been swapped out for something else...

Rear is either a 8.25 or D35.

for your lift it would be the rear because the u-bolts go over the axle to attach the leafs.

Look at the picture I posted of the diff covers and figure out if you have the D35 or 8.25 for your rear axle. Your front axle is a D30.

The Chry 8.25 has a larger axle tube than the Dana 35.
