posi rear code ??

Is there a code on the axle tube that tells whether a rear end is positraction? I pulled a rear end out of a '72 that is definitly a posi, but it does not list it on the glovebox door.

The code is : RHA W018 2

I found that the RHA is 3.07 gear ratio. What about the rest??

The numbers and letters past the first 3 are plant, and date codes. RHA, according to the GM master parts catolog is not a Possi unit. The following are letter codes for possi units in 72: RAA, RAX, RAZ, RGS, RHA, RHX and RRR. If you have a possi, someone made it that way. WES www.ClassicHeartbeat.com

Wes,
You say that RHA is NOT a posi unit, but then you go on to list a bunch of posi unit codes, and RHA is on the list. Can you clear this up for me?
