That one says 37 to 39 if your tube is a 1950 it will be this one .Also the newer tubes 51to 54 are a bit bigger diameter so also different part .one way to tell your tube is a. 1950 is it will have dowel a dowel pin to hold the original bushing in the tube ,two pins one for each of the origional bushing as the origional is two instead of the newer oakie style .with the oakie you only need to remove the dowel closest to the tranny end as the other old bushing stays in .I never done this yet but read a lot of posts .Also measure the tube and new bushing before to make sure it will fit .There are a few videos on this also .
Link is generic photo of bushing, I will order correct one based on year of my truck. I'm looking for person or persons who have actually replaced their bushing and can provide feedback on the issue with installation if any, such as ease of installation, modification if needed and what and how they encountered.

Yes I will I was going to do this last fall and took the old bushing out with the puller ,it was in there good and I had difficulties but it is out .I decided to take the rear cover off the diff and found some damaged gears so I was thinking gear swap but that is for another day .I found a good rear axle from a 49 and had to order the bushing that is for the older tubes .
FYI , everyone. We have decided to start a new thread for Kevinski, within "Driveline" so he can document his work. Thank you!
