axle splines

Ther are 28 & 31 spline axles from the older vehicles for sure.

The best way to verify stuff is with buck tag numbers.

This is the tag that says what the rear is made up with.

28 spline axles taper down to the splines from the smooth machine area.

31 splines axles go right from smooth to splines with NO Taper to them.
