Compare array differences by key

I have two arrays with similar values, but arranged in different keys, example:

var array1 = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];
var array2 = [3, 2, 1, 4, 5];

They are equal in value, but not in key order. Other questions already address they are equal value.

How do I get the result array1 != array2 with JavaScript or jQuery based solely on the key order?

What's your desired output in this case? Do you want `[0,2]`, since those indexes don't match? – Brian Shamblen Oct 07 '15 at 21:37
Technically, they are equal. – SalientGreen Oct 07 '15 at 21:38
They are equal in value, but not in the key order, that's the difference I'm trying to obtain. – harrypujols Oct 07 '15 at 21:40
