Type O Rear w/466 gear -TO stamp
#4
The O-Type was made from 1967-1970 and is a direct fit for A body cars from 68-72.
The early (67-69) O-Type have sealed bearings with the oil seal inboard of the bearing, pressed into the end of the tube.
The 1970 version uses an open bearing with the oil seal outboard of the bearing, pressed onto the axle shaft between the bearing and the axle retainer flange (same as the 71-up corporate 8.5" 10 bolt rears).
I can't tell from the pictures which version this one is. Perhaps post a pic of the casting number on the snout to ID the year.
31 spline axle shafts were used on the HD rears in 67-68; the later years used 28 spline shafts.
