Thw axles or the axle tubes? I don't understand what you mean by "axle tubes". Either way, I doubt it. The 12 bolt's use a heavy duty posi, typically with 33-spline axles. What are you trying to do?

Nope.

The axle tube diameter is different and it would take some pretty interesting work to make it work... and worth the money spent on actually doing it.

BTW, stock 12-bolts use a 30 spline axle. The aftermarket units from Moser and Strange use a 33 spline axle, which is unnecessary if they actually used a quality axle to begin with.
