About 6 months to a year ago, I found a 3rd party company selling rubber rear differential gaskets for the KK. Of course, I didn't save the website and now I can't find it. Does anyone know where to find these? Trying to avoid making my own from a tube.

The rear diff in a KK is a Chrysler 8.25. You should just be able to Google "Chrysler 8.25 Differential Gasket" and come up with many results.

When I Googled Chrysler 8.25 differential gasket, I got results for KJ differential gaskets. Is the KK differential exactly the same as the KJ?

The 8.25 hasn't changed since the XJs ran them back in the late 90s. The only differences are spline count(KJs and KKs are the same, 29 spline), ABS, and I believe disc brakes.

I think the one you are thinking of is lube locker. I have one for my trans pan and it was so easy to install. It also didn't leak at all despite me stripping a bolt on the pan out so I'd recommend it.

Like Bmxer said, it's the spline counts and gear ratios that differ. Gaskets and covers should be the same for all Chrysler 8.25's.
