My younger brother just picked up a tj with a D35 rear. I told him about this and he is pretty interested. Would he need a new drive shaft for this and it comes with all the brake stuff right?

Awesome. Brake parts included. It is missing the little brass brake block on the axle and it does not have an e-brake. I think he would just need an adapter and could use his driveshaft. Might have to modify the dshaft length - I'm not sure. Here is some info that makes it sound pretty straight forward:

I'll give it a read. i don't know much about TJ's. lol

the junction block is no big deal. Hell, the factory TJ one may work, otherwise it's $20 at the parts store.

He'll need the spicer 2-2-1379 flange adapter to go from 8.8 flange to the 1310 joint, and it's very likely that he'll need the shaft shortened by about 2 inches if he's not lifting it at the same time.
The 8.8 pinion is quite a bit longer than d35, and then you've got the extra 1/2 of the flange adapter as well.

It's gonna make the driveshaft on a stock height TJ super short. It's gona vibe. Since you're having a shaft made it may be wise to rock a hack n tap or short shaft kit and go full CV shaft. might find a stock front that will work.

Stock TJ junction will work, I got one on my 8.8 on the XJ...

I run the doppelganger u-joint cause I'm cheap and didn't buy the conversion flange...
