From the Dana Bill of materials cross referance. It looks like the disconnect was only 82-84. The BOM is stamped on the left axle tube.
610157 JEEP 44 FRONT 1982-84 WAGONEER, CHEROKEE DISCONNECT STD TRACK
610140 JEEP 44 FRONT 1981-85 WAGONEER / CHEROKEE
610227 JEEP 44 FRONT 1985 GRAND WAGONEER

I said left side, based on just being able to look at the diff, then I thought, that's not very clear. So, I changed it and said passenger side. But, then I lost track of which is really the front side or back side since it's a front axle.
Wow, you wouldn't think it would be so hard to write something. Kind of makes you want to cut the JP Editors a little slack when they get something wrong. Nah.
Glad you found it.
