It should. Use the spider gears from the 96, because the 89 has non c clip axles.
There is no such thing as a C-clip D30!!

Disconnect dana 30's (like the 89 likely has) have a C-Clip on the inner long side shaft, to hold it in place while the disconnect collar shifts.
 
if your talking about a D30 FRONT AXLE...

the '89 will be high pinion with reverse rotation gears.

I know that the newer XJ's (I don't know the years) got low pinion D30's an will have standard rotation gears... so do some searches or maybe someone will chime in.

This difference will prevent the carriers from being interchangable.
