Default Can I reuse my old spider gears in my new carrier?

Hey guys,
I am going to get this front carrier for my gear swap
ringpinion.com/ProductDetails.aspx?ProdID=8338"]http://www.ringpinion.com/ProductDetails.aspx?ProdID=8338[/URL]

Can I use the spider gears from my 3.21 carrier, or do I have to get new ones?
Yukon has spiders for another $100, but I would rather not spend the money if my old ones will work.
My Jeep only has 7000 miles on it.

Thanks for the help!

Should work as long as they are both open type carriers. By open i mean no lockers or limited slips.

From what I have read, they will not work. JK spider gears will only work in JK specific carriers so I would be careful. Northridge sells JK specific carriers so I would talk to him.
