Pretty sure they r different...the coil springs for instance are different size, id say overall length is also different. as would be swaybars etc.
Centre would be 4.3, cv's would be ???

To add to what dow50r wrote,
Axle is 80mm narrower than 80/100 axle.
Shortside has the same C/V-inner axle as 80/100 DX
Axle is shorter on Long side by ~80 mm
Brakes hubs disc's etc the same as 100's
Diff centres are the same 4.3.1 on 1HZ and 4.1 on 1HDFTE engines
