Good afternoon,
I have 2000 XJ. I got my build sheet from Chrysler and it says I have the C 8.25 in it. Bought gears for the install in the rear and bought another D30 with 4.88's already in the front. Took the Jeep to the gear installer and he just called and said I have a D35 in there. So sometime before i got the Jeep somebody installed a D35.
My question is this, I can get a C 8.25 from the junkyard. Should it be just a straight swap on the rear end? I have about 5" of lift currently. I also had the drum brakes completely rebuilt 2 summers ago. Will any of that swap over to the C8.25? Do I need to get another driveshaft?
Thanks,
Josh
