Quite alot actually.
Different gauges, rubber rear engine mounts instead or springs, xfer case mounting castings have different angle. The box also has 3 tapered pockets with horizontal stiffening ribs.
B-2 model is a one year only - 1950. B-3 is '51-'52, serial #'s determine exact year. Other clues : look for month (6) and year (52) on wheels, date, month & year can also often be found on xfer case, bellhousing, & transmission. Also first digits on winch serial # demote year.
126 is for wheelbase = 126"
