I searched on this and returned some help, but not all I was looking for.
I just bought a 89 XJ(will post pictures soon). It was hit in the front left and did damage to the stock front axle. The guy I am working for has a XJ in the bone yard that I got a replacement from. The problem is that I do not know what year the "other" XJ is and I do not know what U-joints this axle has. The XJ could be anything from a 92-96 based on whats left. I think it has the Mopar 8.25 rear. All the engine and door decals were removed. Can I decode the vin and find out? I need to know if its 260s,270s or 297s. It did not have ABS, but could be a 96. The joints/axles do not look like the ones from the 89.
The XJ I bought might have the Dana 44, but I need to have a way to possitively ID it as a D44.
