front axle u joints

no. not different sizes from left to right. they are the same u-joints.
but, the earlier models had two different size joints for select trac and command track models. this ended in either 95 or 96 when chrysler just went with the larger 297x joints.
the earlier command track used 260x joints and select trac all used the 297x.

you are correct. pre 95 with command trac used the smaller 260x joints.
if you had select trac with abs, you would have had the larger 297x joints.
