1999 TJ rear Dana 35 trying to find axles

[99greenTJ]

Trying to find replacement axles, for a Dana 35 rear diff. Buying parts for these seems to be challenging. My jeep does not have ABS. Vendors lists include axles with ABS tone rings included, ones with ABS ready, and ones with no ABS. Is the NO ABS and ABS ready the same axle, as far as fit?
I'm looking to just replace the stock components, and not good to posi or steeper gear. 3.07 open carrier.
Where is the tone ring on these axles, if you have ABS?

East Coast gear supply is having a 15% off sale. I would think they would have them.

Call them with questions. They have always been good to me. Also might look at stronger axle when replace, may not be that much more for more strength ??

I have a set coming from rockauto.
I just made the assumption that the difference between an axel that can be used for a tone ring is a machined outer hub to accept the tone ring.
When I made that assumption, the available axles were better.
We will see if I assumed correctly.

I should follow up on the rear-end rebuild. The replacement axles were the question but turned out to be okay.
Not a 5 star experience due to the axles not being machined the sames as the original ones. This is just thousands different, that would not let the spider gear pin be slid in. I needed to hand file both ends of the axle tips to let the pin be inserted, without interference.
The ABS issue turned out to be a non issue.
The lengths of the wheel studs I brought up on another thread also was a non issue.
