How to identify the rear end?
I have a 99 xj and am curious as to what rear I would have in it, I read that they started putting the chrysler 8.25 in the 97-01 models, I looked at the rear I have and there are no identifying marks or plates on it. How do I tell?

These threads are getting annoying and more annoying. Take a picture and post it or let ppl know you found it so this can be closed and stop going to the top of the list whenever someone wants to chime in. I makes more important threads get pushed to the bottom

There's a difference in the diff housig that makes it a little more obvious than just the covers:
The Dana 35 is rounded:
The Chrysler 8.25 has a big flat lip sticking out:
.
This is not completely correct. ABS was only available with a D35. However both axles were sold without it. If you do not have ABS you could have either.
