How do you know? You haven't seen his Jeep and there are no guarantees that its either a HP or a LP D30 based on a build date during a transition period.

The Axel on the left is a LP D30, on the right is a HP D30. Look at the picture and compare it to what you have under your Jeep, due to your build date thats the only sure way for you to know which axel you have.
