With the exception of the housing for the gears, the inner axle shafts, and the guts inside the front pumpkin, it is a D-35 in all respects. Even the U-joints for the axle shafts are the same as a D-35. So you will need D-35 ball joints. Brakes, U-joints, bearings, spindles, ball joints, etc are all D-35.
