Default Front 44 axle shaft lengths?

I have a set of superior front shafts and a set of ctm's from an older D44. Wondering if they would work in the JK ? Anyone know the stock shaft lengths ?

i think the spline count is going to be your sticking point. i don't think parts from previous years D44 work with the new ones... I may be wrong though.

If you have 44 shafts the inner splines will be the same. The problem is the outter stub, the JK is 32 spline and the TJ is 27. The lenght of the inner shafts will probably be an issue since the JK is 65.5" wide and the TJ 60.5"
