Default mil axles?

I am in the process of a cleanout/sortout...scrapping stuff that is 'stuffed'.

Can anyone ID these axle sets please?

long axle is 33 1/2" overall
short axle is 26 1/2" overall
dia is 1 3/16"

If I cant ID them I'll toss them....its all a matter of knowing who what where.
I'm assuming the are Mil as they came with a pile of Dodge WC kit...but then again...maybe civie???

thanks for any input.
Brent.

Yes something like that Model A,B, T,v8 car, e93a, 100e, Remember the ford hub puller for removing the hubs off the taper and key. A jeep is like your 3/4 ton Dodge set up ( full floating hub) if you break an axle the hub stays on. With these axles the wheel heads off on it own.
