Icon5 Front Axle Questions...Need help asap

My buddy wrecked my truck and bent the radius arm and axle pivot brackets and possibly the right front axle. Will the split axles from a 4X4 1990 ranger fit my 1994 4X4 4.0???

Front axle identification info: Ford Ranger Dana 28 and dana 35 TTB Axles

Don't mind the stupid SAS remark. What it means is replacing the whole front suspension with a solid axle. Solid Axle Swap.

The 28 is weaker and just by looking at it I'd say you would have to use a different driveshaft but I'm not 100% on that.
