No, the HP30 gears rotate opposite direction than the regular D30.
No again. The '95 and later V8 ZJ's had a D44a rear axle. But all ZJ's had the D30 front axle.
The long arm set-up offers a better ride because of improved geometry, and less road shock transferred into the body.

The 4.0L 6 Cyl. ZJ's & WJ's did have the D35 rear axle.

Will a front housing from a 91 cherokee fit under my 97 gc? Found a very cheap deal on one.
