I know that when trying to determine if you have 27 or 29 splines has a lot to do with the year of manufacturing. I also know that they went from 27 to 29 splines in the mid year of 1996.
Heres my problem, I have a 1996. Its a sport, with the 4.0l/AW4, and a C8.25 rear. How do I figure out at what point in 96 mine was made? Even then, is there any other way.... ASIDE... from pulling an axle and counting spline or measuring the diameter of the shaft to know for sure which it has? Is there some sort of code on the housing? The only tag that I saw on it said 3.5, which I know is the ratio (3.55).
I searched back to 2003 for this, found a few semi-related questions, but no answers. I looked at Yuccamans page (awesome info...), and even found an old post with him aksing the exact question years ago, but no answer.
Am I going to have to pull an axle shaft to figure this out (yes, I know its easy enough), or is there another way?
VIN number/build sheet perhaps?
Thanks, James
