I am not entirely sure of the spline count on the axle shaft ends of the 2nd and 3rd as people have found either 22 or 30 splined versions .

 

Basically I wanted a longer axle shaft that would fit the same DOJ and CV joints as an L RX turbo has and this is what the above mentioned 95AC-25 has . In fact my Australian 87 L Series Subaru WSM shows the RX shaft as also being a "95AC-25" . I'm pretty sure the DOJ's are the same on L and 1st Gen Liberty 95AC-25 shafts so all that has to change is the CV joint to an L RX Turbo one .

I have not yet had a bare pair of shafts to compare the effective difference in length but soon ...
