The axle u joints and driveshaft ujoints are different. The driveshaft ujoints are 1330s and there will be a couple different sizes for the axle depending on if you have ABS or not.

As far as the GC tie rod, it'll bolt right in. It's a good upgrade. Don't bother with the GC drag link unless your current drag link is tired and the rod ends need replacing, the XJ and ZJ drag links are of equal beefiness.

Try your local junkyard if you're going for cheap. It'd cost you more than it's worth to pay for shipping on that for a used drag link and tie rod.
