Your correct there. 71 or so the 14 bolt rearend was the last year on a 3/4
ton truck. (or some such animal when it went to an optional rear-end.)
6 holers can be found on 4x4s and some 2wd heavy duty rigs.

You kidding? The governement let up its claws on a big tax grab? Not a
chance. We order stuff from the US it gets slapped with duty. Last time I
ordered parts from the US, my final cost was up by 48 percent. (forty
