Default ranger axles

Just looking for confirmation on which side I actually need for the 5 lug swap in the mustang.
I need to make sure I pull the right ones. There is a long and short side so post up which one it is.

From Matt Bobbit website on brake and 5 lug upgrade.

The '83-'92 Ranger/Bronco II Left (driver) side axle (29-5/32") from a 4cyl or 3.0L V-6 with the 7.5" rear end, or '86-'97 Aerostar RIGHT side axles (29-5/32") is what you want.

Cophers has axles on sale for 10 bucks each. Why spend 230 when I can do the same thing for 20?

Then I do 31 splines and a new diff. To buy all of it and convert it to much cash.

You must think i'm $hawn or something.

Besides the 4 banger isn't going to break axles.
