1999.5 LSD to 97

Any ideas if they are compatible, they are both HG46 axles so they should just swap. But my mechanic says not always. Anyone done one?

 

Yes I know a locker of some sort would be better, but I am more of a long distance kinda of guy 2 to 3 days out and back. So no crazy stuff where I need to walk out, the LSD would do for now.

I have a 98 in a 97 and it fit properly.

 

There WAS a change with the axles (spline count, maybe more). The change date is grey, but I think it is after 1999.5.

 

I realize this answer doesn't help much.

direct bolt on. Axle wasn't changed until the latest model

Thanks guys, I was pretty sure it was, but it is nice to know before you have something shipped a couple of thousand miles.
