For any one that reads this just remember one of the reasons the use square u bolts is because the axle tubes are not all that strong and you can crush the tube or wear a hole through it like I have seen. Same reason they use two center oins on the newer 3/4 an 1 ton Dodges They had to do this because you can't us 5/8 ubolts on these axles you can crush them.

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

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.
