So are the 12 bolt housings identical, that is, will a 2, 3 or 4 series Carrier fit in any housing? I've heard these terms for years, but never really understood what they meant. until today!  :)

Thank you all.

And thank you to all that assisted with the report, which took several years to put together.

Thank you Byron. I appreciate all those who made this report possible.  As many of you know there was not much information on the COPO rear end till now. Good work!
