Hi Guys, I'm a newby so forgive me if i'm doing something stupid. I'm looking at buying a 98 Cherokee sport 2 door and would like to know what axles are on it. Thanks!
 
From the FAQ section: What Axles Do I Have?

The front will be a HP D30 (assuming 4x4 and that the PO didn't swap it). The rear will vary, this picture floats all over the net, but it is a good visual guide.

unless the rear axle was swapped, itll most likely be either the dana 35 or the chry 8.25. ill come out and say that the chry 8.25 has a flat bottom as compared to the dana 35 more rounded bottom, just in case you couldnt really tell from the pics. the main concensus is that the dana 35 is the weakest and you could run into problems with hard wheeling with larger tires (33"+ <---this can be argued)
