Default transfer case interchangability

ok so I have been searching and reading and still havent been able to come up with a yes or no answer.
I know I have a 23 spline input on my 231 case behind my ax15. because I have the ax15 that means I also have the longer inputs shaft.
my question is

WOULD A SHORT SHAFT CASE WORK ON MY JEEP? or would I have to find a long shaft case or swap my input shaft out.
reason I ask is the local pull a part sells used t-cases for $61. the yard is filled with AW4 equipped XJ's but a 95+ 5spd is kinda rare.
I want to pick up a spare case and throw an SYE at it and once I have everything I need to swap it in just spend a couple hours swapping 1 case out and the other in without having to change anything from one case to the other.
I guess I could just buy a new longer input shaft and swap it in while I have the case apart
another idea I had was swap in the junkyard case temporarily while I rebuild and SYE my case.


so what is everyones input on this
thanks in advance

Wish I had an answer but I would thing if it's an AX15 I would think you'd need the same on the t-case for it to fit properly..Maybe someone who knows more will chime in.
