They are definitely the same part. Great find!

I didn't know that raxles.com wouldnt do a turbo axle due to being currently cost prohibitive.. Marty didn't tell me that when I called, but I didn't ask. I dont think I picked turbo axles at the salvage place but I bought what they had. I didn't worry obout it because I figured a turbo part would work on my NA car and just be overkill. I originally planned to get the parts I bought rebuilt by Marty. Yesterday I picked better parts than I thought I would ever find so it may be possible to re-grease and reboot them as some posters told me yesterday. Before committing to that effort and mess I'll need to inspect them more carefully. Either way I'll have to figure out what I bought.
