I am pretty sure they are the same from cuda to challenger, the other difference is for manual steering vs power steering. the power steering shaft is roughly 2 inchs shorter that a manual shaft. and I maybe mistaken but the splines on the steering boxes may be different too but I would have to look into that

Yup, that's the only real difference in length is the manual/power steering.

And if you have the shorter one, and need the longer one, there are adapters sold though places like Firm Feel to make the shorter column work with Power Steering.
