If you can't tell by looking at it, measure the diameter of the axle tubes. 8.25 is 3" and the D35 is 2.62"

Another way to tell is the D-35 has a metal plug and the 8.25 has a rubber plug.

That is a good thing if you aren't doing hard wheeling. D35 only came with the Trac-Lok Limited Slip Differential...... It's better than the 8.25 in every way except the most important, durability.
