I have a question to anyone that might know the answer (tjkj2002 probably :D )

What type of Front axle were in stock Suzuki Samurai? Were they SFA?

I doubt it but just wanted to pose the question and this site seems to be the quickest way to get the correct answer.

They were SFA with leaf springs. Tiny little things. Toy axles or Wrangler axles are a popular upgrade.

Yes Samis had Suzuki straight axles. I currently have a Long Wheelbase (94" mine is 100") Samurai that I put Toyota axles (all the running gear) in. Also the 2.4L diesel engine. Toyota axles are a great upgrade for samurai axles. Though don't kid yourself , they are light rigs and you can still wheel them with stock running gear. I did Moab, the Rubicon and Fordyce Creek with my Samurai on stock axles.....
