91.5 4x4 rear axl spline count

I need to order a locker for my 91.5 D250 4x4. It should be a Dana 70 I'm sure but did Dodge use a std spline count on all our trucks. I need to know my spline count. I quess I can go pull a shaft... but if they are all the same. Anybody know?

I've got a SRW 70 from a 90 or 91 sitting in the garage and it has 35 splines, only way to be sure is pull a shaft.

As long as this wasn't switched along the line, probly not in just about all cases, an easy way to tell without pulling a shaft is if the shaft is retained by bolts, it's a 32 spline shaft. If it's retained by studs it's a 35 spline shaft.

I pulled an axle shaft and checked. Mine is a bolt on flange (no studs) and it was 32 spline. So looks to be pretty standard. Thanks for the input guys.
