Just to clarify,
The 79 axle never came with a AA code. A was 3.54 (standard) N was trac loc for 79
What you have is an axle housing from '80-81 that should have 2.73 gears, could be a NT 50.5 or WT 54.5 (rear axle) you will have to measure.
NT ran to '83 in a CJ5 , WT CJ7 ran '82-86
I hope this helps.

It does help quite a bit ... especially for a newbie with little to no mechanical aptitude!
