Drum sizes?

I went to get new brake shoes today and they showed two sizes. I could assume that the 8.25 axle would have the larger drum(10") than the D35(9") but I wasn't shure. I remember seeing somthing about the police XJ's having larger drums but I didn't know the whole deal on it. I have a 99' Classic w/242 and 8.25 rear. Point me in the right direction please. :dunno:
 
Nope.

From 84 thru 89 or 90, the D35s got 10x1.75" drums and the D44s got 10x2.5" drums.

In 90 or 91 Chrysler changed over to 9x2.5"drums. A '99 is going to have 9" drums and the book should not even be showing a 10" option for that year.
