Front Axle Housing

I have a 1994 Cherokee and need to replace the front axle housing. I found one off a 1998. To my understanding, the 98 housing will bolt right up to my 94 no problem, but can I take my 94 axles shafts and use them in the 98 housing? Both are 3.55 ratio.
 
That will work just fine, but the shafts on the 98 will have the stronger 297X axle shaft joints in them. I would keep those and believe it or not the 760X joints (297X replacements) are cheaper than your 260X that you have now.
