UK XJs , with a few exceptions, have a Dana 35 rear and a Dana 30 front.

Whilst the TJ has a Dana 30 front it is a std rotation whereas the XJ has a high pinion reverse rotation. It can be used as a replacement only lacking the caster adjusting cam bolts in the lower arms.

The TJ rear is invariably a Dana 44

Thanks for info, had chance to get reduced gearing but it was off a wrangler so I am presuming they will not fit with out large hammer.
