The "normal" carrier axle is from the Torque tube drive (1938? Brit style truck axle) so the axle in your carrier has the two bolt lugs on each side (front and bottom) where the stays bolt on. The 1940 style axle like in the Australian carriers, has the spring pads. Is this a standard later type carrier axle from Ford of Canada?
