Just be sure they are D35 Normal Rotation NOT Reverse, and you should be good to go.
The install kit is another story, from what I'v read the standard D35 install kit (Master or Overhaul, not sure about a standard install) will not work, you need one for the D35 Hybrid specificly...

dont do 4.88s haha im warnin you not good for a daily driver .... 4.56s will be better rpms were to high with 35s and 4.88s for me to drive the speed limit (75 mph) on the highway 3050 to 3100 rpm at 75 ....
I'm using Yukon's and so far so good. Also, if the setup is not right, breakage is very likely with ANY gears, lol.
Are you putting them in yourself? If so, be advised that most Dana diffs have a "carrier break" -- a ratio above which you require a different carrier. If you are using less than 4.10 gears now, you probably need not just the gears, but the carrier.
Furthermore, 4.88's are a PAIN to work with if you're going to put a powertrax type locker in or what-not. Also, on c-clip axles like our 8.8's.
You either have to take the carrier out and remove the ring gear to get the center pin out of the spiders, OR you have to grind a flat on the pin enough to pull it out past the ring gear.
4.88 ring is VERY thick -- the reason for this difficulty.

well the deal is...
scott - big04ranger that lives in indy has 4.56s he wants 4.88s to go with his new 37s
so i talked to him and he is installing the 4.88s i buy in his truck and then installing the 4.56s out of his truck into mine.
so basically we are doing a little swap sometime this summer.
he has motive 4.56s front and rear, and i will have a 4.88s in yukon for the front and 4.88s in motive for the rear.
should all work out great. i hope

From what I found, the D35 (at least the Jeep rears) break at 3.55 and UP. Chances are you have 3.55 or higher already, so you may not require a different carrier. Not sure if the hybrid front D35's are different than the rears.
i was told they are very simular. but i also heard the install kits are different as well.
i have 4.10s now. i know scott knows what i need and dont need since he has installed the 4.56s in his. i will try and document what i used and didnt use for future people wanting to regear.

my ranger came stock with 4.10s... im using stock carriers with the 4.56.. and yes powertrax are kinda tricky even on 4.56, so i know i have my fun cut out for me when reinstall time comes
just so every1 knows i have all the tools needed to set up gears. and have done quite a few gear set-ups

before, you can see where the pin will hit

after, you can see how little actually had to be taken off and how it will not affect the gear at all
