The Chevrolet Major Assemblies Manual also shows that part of the Arcticized and Special Cold Weather Equipment was a different complete Rear Axle assembly, presumably fitted with modified Brakes that were less prone to freezing, or permit easier access to unfreeze frozen brakes.

Is there any mention of this in any of the supplementary manuals?

Tony,

The difference between an axle “Used with Arcticized Equipment or Special Cold Weather Equipment” and an equivalent axle that is “Not used with Arcticized Equipment or Special Cold Weather Equipment” is limited to the wheel bearing lubricant.
