COPO 12 Bolt Posi Carrier....
 
How do I know for sure that I have one? I have tried using the search function on this website... but haven't found any hardcore evidence. Seems like the guys who know these things want to keep them under wraps.

Forgot to mention that the unit in question is a small window 174 carrier.

Hi Matt,
Post a picture or email me one of the internal parts thru the large case window.
I should be able to tell from that.

That is a standard 4-series posi unit.
The spring plate have the obround holes for the c-clips.
The axle gears look like they are the 17 tooth gears, because they have flat tips and the teeth roots are too high above the clutch packs.
The B-7-J would be the assembly date of February 7th 1969.
That would be a good unit for a late February or March assembled BV or KK rear end.
Hope this helps.
Eric

The copo posi unit uses standard non posi sized spider gears. They are smaller than traditional posi spiders so they can match up with the larger copo axle gears. Hard to explain with only one cup of coffee.
