34 vs 35 king pins, whats the diff?

[cas3]

i had some nos king pins on the shelf for my 34 project, they looked the same as what came out of the 34, so i used them. now, it seems the angle for the actuator is not right, so i guess your going to tell me the notch for the lock bolt is at a different angle? i see a different part # in my orange book, no number on the old box they were in

Model A?

[cas3]

i dont think model A, going from memory, the A actuator sticks straight out, the v/8 era they are not parallel to the axle, but angle slightly towards the front. good guess though!

What letter or number is above/under the "Ford" script

well i went to see fred at south side obsolete today and got myself educated. the diff is the face of the open bell. in the photo note, laying on a flat surface the 35 is square with the table, the 34 is angled slightly, not square with the table. the slot for the lock pin is the same. now back to work, skip
