Default is it necessary to change your axles when doing an engine swap

some performance shops give or include new axles when performing an engine swap. is it a "must" to change the axles or can you just leave them as they are.

it would be necessary if your changing from a d series motor to a b series.. but lets say d to another d or b to another b than no.

If you are getting used axles, it would probably be wise to buy new ones.
