    yeah i think the 8.25 would be an easy swap. Thats what im running and i did the disc brake swap off a 95" ZJ. Everything works great!

    I put a C8.25 from a 99 in my 90 and it worked wonderfully. The only problem I had was the e-brake cables aren't the same (I still don't have them hooked up properly, but it shouldn't be an issue on yours, I think) and the driveshaft length was different. If memory serves me correctly, the old driveshaft was about 2 inches too long.
