A few questions.
First - I need to pull the front and rear driveshaft as well as the rag joint from the steering box. All look like they use 12 sided bolts.
My question is - will any 12 sided socket work or is this a unique pattern for driveshafts? This is yet another first for me.
I found an SAE set on amazon for $25 but before purchase want to make sure they'll work. I also see driveshaft specific sockets for Ford and others on websites and they can be as much as $30+ each.

Second - can anyone help decipher the casting numbers on the AMC20 rear? I know the front dana 44 has 3.31 gears from the tag. So the rear I assume is same even though I can't tell from the casting. I looked up AMC20 castings and looked at a few web sites (jeepform, jeeptech, etc.) and all they provide is gear ratio letters and none of those match mine and they don't help determine any of the other marks. Not critical just curious what they mean.
