I would say yes, but I am not 100 percent sure.

auto and manual passenger side axle is the same. The driver side axle is different though. Remember that you need to the halfshaft, which is the piece between both axles.

i just changed my axles and the auto and manual shafts had different part numbers when i went to get them. but i think the passenger side is the same... dunno for sure. find someone with a manual and pop the sucker out lol. should take all of 30mins at most.

the drivers side u willl definitely need to swap, along with the intemediate shaft for it, but on the pass side, the auto axle will fit fine and work fine, though they are definitely different from the manual axle. They have differnt inner cv joint bearings, not really sure why, but thats the only difference i saw when taking them apart.

oh yeh, these guys are the goodness for your swap.. http://haprecycling.com/changeovers.html

Best thing to do is give them a call every now and then for those hard to find parts.
