Default Axle shafts!

Does anyone know if the Dana 30 axleshafts out of a 91Xj will fit/work in a 97 Grand Cherokee with Dana 30? Any help is greatly appreciated!

If the 91 doesn't have ABS, the u joints in the axles will be smaller than what you should have, unless you have the CV type joints and then the 91's are probably stronger. If you can find the axles out of Cherokee or Grand Cherokee that have ABS on the front, then you will end up with a larger u joint in the axle then the 91 will probably offer. Now I could be wrong in all of this cause I'm still learning myself. I'm just going off what was said on Trucks on SpikeTV.

That is correct the 91's without ABS used the smaller u-joints. The 91's with ABS used the larger 297 style u-joints.

I thought 96 and newer had 29 spline instead of the 27 found in pre 96.
