Default 8.25 swap

On sunday I'm going to go look at a 27 spline Chrysler 8.25 rear end. (i'm only every going to run 33's at most on it) I was wondering when swapping out my D35 is there anything special that needs to be done to fit the 8.25. Such as a drive shaft yoke. I have a 88 XJ Auto.

This one is 75 bucks for the whole thing. Im running 31 right now. Besides a bit of added strength with the 29 spline what is the difference.

The added strength it really the only reason.

You could probably find an 8.25 29spl for the same price as this one.
