Rearend numbers

I have a 51 F1 & on the rear these numbers are
stamped on it 16423 does anyone know what
they mean? they are on the drivers side.
there is also a set of numbers on each side of
the rear & they say u.s.patent.there is a tab with
W 41
---
11 so i a guess that it means that i have a 411 rear
i just wondered what the other numbers mean.

Looking from the rear, in one of the corners should be a 41 or 44 cast into it. (my guess for 1951 is 44) that would mean Dana 41 or 44 axle.

Rear End Numbers

Havi,
I looked at the corners of the rear & on
the right corner(under 2 inches of crap)
there was the number 41--the number tag
said W 41 over 11 so i guess that
means that it is a 411?
