When axles are mentioned I read the word "spline" alot. What does that mean and what do our rears have?

It is the splines on the end of the axle that engage the spider gears in the diff. Ours have 29 splines.

They are grooves at the end of your axle that are about 1.25" long. The more splines...the more contact surface area. Usually the more splines the thicker ( larger circumference ) the axle...ie...stronger. The olded XJ's have 27 spline 8.25's...the newer heavier KJ's have 29 spline axles.
