Don't worry a mod will move it to the proper area.


Are you asking about the axles themselves or complete differentials to swap into it I'm guessing? If axles they have to be from the same differential you now have to fit. For complete swaps the cheapest and a more HD would be a Chy 8.25 and 97-01yrs. have the 29 spline axles much stronger than the earlier models avoid the D35 as it is weak to begin with. This is a direct bolt-in.


For a front differential any D30 will work up to a 99 as they are all HP models avoid the 00/01's there.

For the fastest and easiest bolt on axle replacement, get a 97-01 Chrysler 8.25 axle
