| Post subject: | another 8.25 KJ vs XJ question |
OK now I know that they are not the same 100% and as I stated in another post I may have a way to get a complete 8.25 from a very built XJ the gears ,4.56, will do me no good now I can probably get just the locker ,95% but are the alloy shafts the same? will they work in my KJ If this is the case then I may just buy both the darn axles as they both have alloys the front has an ARB with 4.56's ,duh I have an ARB in my 30 ,I want 4.56's in my 30 I want an ARB in the front of the KJ If I buy this complete 30 ,ARB 4.56's alloys my front is done pull the ARB from my TJ 30 install in the KJ ,with the power trax and alloys from the XJ in the rear and I will have 2 BAD ARSE Jeeps then sell what I have left over to buy the gears for my 44 rear in the TJ Does this sound like a good plan? Should I Just Empty Every Pocket? Keep in mind I am also buying a set of Trail ready bead locks with no tires and they are 16X10's I run 15's on the TJ now so I will also be droping $800 min. on tires next year as well I want to have it all but I may not if ya'll tell me that the in sides of the 2 8.25's are the same I will be poopin and back to working 60+ hours a week for the next year |

The axles will not work from the XJ's 8.25 to the KJ's 8.25,the XJ's 8.25 axles are shorter then the KJ's axles.I was pissed myself when I was getting stronger axles for my 8.25,I wanted alloy axles to but sadly they where to short. |

Do you have the dims for them? How much of a difference? |

Do you have the dims for them? How much of a difference? KJ's-----30 7/8" 29-spline XJ's-----29 13/16" 29-spline XJ's-----29 7/8" 27-spline '97+ Dakota-----30 1/4" 29-spline or 33 3/8" 29-spline |
