Cross referencing this here...

Figured I would post my links to 8.8 tech i have aquired, never made my own because these were more then sufficient. If people search I hope this will come up for them.

at a glance...

These are the codes you will need when out shopping for your 8.8

Here's all the specs, measurements, and misc crap about the 8.8 you'll ever want to know.

This link say that all charokees with the 8.25 rear end have the 1330 U-Joint.

This is not the case. You have the 1310. and need the 2-2-1369 part number

another word on the u-joint flange, the one off an early 90s explorer will work for the 1310 ujoint, it has a spicer p/n 2-2-671, I was unable to look up that number, but it did work.
