12 bolt decode KDC code?

That's what I have seen too.
There were 3 different plants assembling this rear,Detroit,Buffalo and Warren.
I have seen them stamped C KK as in my cars example,as well as KK C.
I would imagine being a new format,most were unsure of the position.

Agreed.

So it is a C KD Rear, but is actually stamped K DC. Is this correct?

Thanks,

That's what I think.
Can you show us pix of the axle stamping?

That is a 1971 Model Production year code.
Application is the same as 70,but their dates were formated differently then previous years.(I had a feeling you might have this)
KD=2:73 Non Posi for Chevelle-Elco-Monte
C=Plant,Buffalo
204=Day of year assembled-Thursday,July 23rd,1970.
A=Buffalo used this on their early built units,stands for 1st shift.
