So from what I can glean from the net is, the KJ swap out is only for the 8.5 Chrysler rear end and the ZJ swap out applies to the D35c diff. Is this correct?
I could be wrong, but the ZJ and KJ are direct bolt on for 8.25 diffs. If you have a dana 44 or 35 c you will need to modify the bolt pattern/holes on the backing plate and the plate that sets the axle bearing pre load.

ZJ brakes have to be modified to fit a C8.25 thus the reason for using KJ brakes off a C8.25.
So if I were to swap out my D35 for a C8.25 under my 01 XJ I could reuse my current ZJ disks by simply enlarging the center hole diameter of the backing plate? Axle flange bolt pattern is the same?
After swapping discs over a couple years back on my '01 XJ I just got around to adding emergency brake cables last week. Ha... here's what I got for my '01.
