What do these axles look like and what are they under?  My International, according to the manual and truck serive manuals has an IH model RA-15 made by Timken/Rockwell.  Is this right?  I can't find any pictures of the Eatons to compare.

The 52 and 72 look the same except the 72 has a ring gear thrust deflection pad adjuster on drivers side of pig where pinion contacts ring gear and used to prevent ring gear side deflection under severe startup loads. 52 did not have this.

That doesn't help as I don't even know what one looks like.

It is a big screw with a lock nut on side drivers side on pig near pinion. You cannot miss it. It you do not see it, it is a HO52.
