You might want to keep looking.

I think my axles WILL work with this diff, I just thought it was unusual how large the flanges were, but I think the bolt pattern diameter is the same.
Im going to measure and go ahead and get it out of that car at least to further inspect. I have a feeling that different years or manufactures may have had varying styles like we see here. They are both small case diffs, and the axles are very similar as well.
I noticed this with wheel hubs on BMW E30s, different early bodies had different thickness hubs for no apparent reason other than possibly different manufacturers.
We shall see.
