Anyway your front axle is a 194 FIA axle, and that is what you need to get the parts for, your rear is either a Chrysler Corporate 8.25, or the Chrysler Corporate 9.25. You can count the bolts on the cover as Sharps stated to figure out which one you have.

In 2000+ there was a change over to the new style front end, the C205F axle, and a few early 2000 builds got the 194 FIA. The main noticeable thing that you will see is that if it has a steering box then it is the 194 FIA, and if it is Rack & Pinion then you have the C205. But again the 1998-1999 and some early built 2000's had the 194 FIA, and 2000-2003 had the C205F.

Just putting that information out there. I use Yukon gears in my builds and Yukon bearings, or Timkin bearings. I only build my own, not other peoples.
