I have a 2001 cherokee. When I was looking at lift kits I noticed that there are different front ends and rear ends. How do I tell what I have? Im just curious.

You have a low pinion Dana 30 front.
Rear is either a Chrysler 8.25 or Dana 35. If the differential has a flat spot on the bottom an d the tubes are 3" diameter it is a Chrysler 8.25".. IF is has ABS it is Dana 35.

Will post up pics in a moment.

Going to give you fair warning of the harsh comments you may receive regarding the usage (or lack there of) of the Search function...

Thanks for the help. I honestly don't care about anyone's comments. If someone has something to say then they can come say it to my face. I will be more than happy to give them my address, place of work, and my phone number. Let me mention though that I am 6'4" tall and I'm a solid 275 pounds. Also I have yet met someone who is capable of catching flying lead.

Brandon, a little word of advise...when a veteran member, such as Prerunner, makes a suggestion....it would be a good idea to listen. Spouting off at the mouth about how big and bad you are is not gonna make you any friends here. You see, I'm big and bad too.....and love folks like you...it entertains me. Actually, I'm having a hard time typing, due to the trembling of my scared little fingers!! Please don't get and, and beat me up!! LOL!!

Can the big and bad attitude, or I will see that you don't get to play in our little sand box anymore! I am threatened by you and your attitude ZERO partner!!

BTW, I'm locking this thread, so when your attitude improves, feel free to ask again...otherwise, kick rocks!
