if your saying you can crush them, i should have crushed them a long time ago from 4 wheeling mine and bashing the axle off of rocks.

No, the vast majority of ALL XJs have D35s. Yes some did get 8.25s and D44s.

no from 84 to 90 they came with the Dana 35, and from 91 to 01 they had the 8.25. trust me ive done research on the Cherokees for school projects i should know.

YOU ARE WRONG! I've worked on XJs and have friends with XJs, 2 of them have 95s and they are both D35s and one has a 97 with a D35.

Straight from Wikipedia.

1990 – 1996 : Dana 35, c-clip, ABS or non-ABS.
1997 – 2001 : Dana 35, c-clip, ABS.

I'm done on this F#*king website. You are the second person I argued with about Cherokees.

This is ****ing bull**** on this website.

Not arguing with you, simply correcting you. I've been in the off-road scene for a while now, I think I might know a thing or two.

Razor, dont leave the website.

Big deal if you argue with someone on it, its how you dig up the truth. Arguments are the best when it comes to this sort of stuff!

Hang in there!
