Traction Lock or Conventional?

telling the diffrence

Here is a quick and easy way to tell if you are dealing with a trac-loc or an open. Look at the bolts that hold the ring gear to the houseing. On an open rear end the bolts sit flush against the houseing. On a trac-loc the mounting bolts sit inside a counter sunk cut out in the gear houseing.

No SandSprite, not in CA. I'm in Oklahoma. Thanks again for all the help everyone. I'm getting a lot of good info from this thread. I think I know where I can get several rearends from early to late 70's Ford pickups that should be good geared 9 inchers in a 31 spline. Might look into putting one of these third members in and getting 31 spline axles for the versailles. Any ideas where I should be looking for axles that would work for this?
