Can someone tell me what year I'm looking at here? Thanks

32. 33-34 are similar but only the 32 has the straight radius rod mount. I'm not familiar enough to be able to tell you if it is a 4 cylinder ("early 32") or a V8 ("Late 32").

4 and V8 were the same. The late 32 is the same as 33-34. Angled. Shown is regular 32.

That is a great article. It doesn't give the greatest description on what rear radius configuration went with what years. I've been looking for good pics and measurments too.
Anyone know of such info?

I know of at least one late '32 rear axle with straight fore and aft radius rod mounts and early (B) radius rods.
