Default What U joints for leaf springs do I need ????

Im looking to pickup All the bolts, nuts and Ubolts I need for a leaf spring

install so I can replace everything but I guess there are different Ubolts

for different rear ends of the same year?

I see a 3.55 chrysler 8.25 and another one that says 3.18 for the same

years? I have a stock 1995 XJ, 2 wheel drive, anyone know what Ubolts I

need?

Thanks

There's a U bolt for the 2.75" diameter Dana 35 and one for the 3.0" diameter Chrysler 8.25". Which axle do you have?

Measure the axle housing, if it is 2.75" it is a D35, if it is 3" it is a Chrysler 8.25. There is a picture with a bunch of dif covers that can be used to ID the axles too, but I can't find it right now
