It looks like it has the Trak-Loc too. Squarish carrier.

Here ya go man...Your pics aren't loading for me. (App) Just make sure spring perches are on the correct side. MJs also came with 44s but mount differently.

^^^ That's a good image but often when it comes down to looking at the real thing it's easy for a layperson to confuse a D35/C8.25 and D44/D60.

For sure. Especially with no/ aftermarket diff cover. There are minor differences though. Just have to look close. D35/ 8.25 have a different *edit* bolt pattern. D60 is huge :]
