Default Axle question

I just bought a 96 GT convertible that had been wrecked. I need to put new axles in and have found a pair from a 2000 GT. Does anyone know if these will work? not sure if the 96 has 28 or 31 spline.

Here's a link. They have axles made seperately for 99-04's and 94-98's, so I'm again assuming they are different lengths.

1/2 inches longer for each axle = 1 inch wider wheel base.
