eaton Guru needed

Its hard to find info on these ! Ive got three carriers. Two are pretty much trhe same except for the gearing. Theyre late '58 and '60 carriers in 4.11 and 5.14 respectively . The 5.14 I have in the truck right now. The pumpkins are identical as far as I can see except for the gearing. same sort of pumpkin and all with the bronze ring gear deflection adjuster.
I was thinking about trying out the other 1962 manufacture carrier I have with 4.57 gears so I starting cleaning it up today and tearing it open for inspection and painting the pumpkin and I noticed that the back of the ring gear looked pretty clean compared to the other two and that was because.... It had no deflection pad . There wasnt a boss for one cast into the pumkin at all. Plus the ribs on the pumpkin looked a little taller than the others. Is this a different type? All the eaton pumpkins I have seen had deflection adjusters in them. Is this a different model?
