Default YJ axles in a cj-7

I have a 78' cj-7 and my buddy is getting rid of his axles out of his 91' YJ, he's got a dana 30 front and a dana 35 rear both with 4.10 gears. I guess what my question is, will these axles work in my cj without any problems or modifications.

Well, there are a few issues. First is the pumpkin on the Dana 30 for the YJ is on the driver side, on the CJ it's a passenger side drop. Second, the spring perches would have to bemoved in about 2" per side on the front. Can't remember how far they would have to be moved on the rear. Third why would you want to put a dana 35 in a CJ... the AMC20 is not that bad of an axle when you put one piece axle shafts in it.
