Model 3 driveshafts

This site may earn commission on affiliate links.
Are there different driveshafts for the various Model 3 motors? E.g would the rear drive unit of an AWD Model 3 have different driveshafts than a RWD Model 3?
I’ve found different part numbers online (1536670-00-B, 1044161-00-D, 1044164-00-A) but unsure if they are different in any way.
Any help or advice appreciated, thank you!
 
From looking at the Electronic Parts Catalog:

1044164-00-A is a rear half shaft for all trims, and is the current part number

1536670-00-B is a front half shaft for AWD and Performance

1044161-00-D was a previous part/revision of the rear half shaft for all trims, possibly up to model year 2020. It does not show up in the parts catalog anymore, but should be interchangeable with the newer revision.
