I think the bushing is different but the spine is the same.

ASD 8's had 3 configurations. Actually 4.

19 spline taper.
25 spline taper.
26 spline taper.
26 spline rear load bushing bore.

Count the splines and we can go from there.

Similar but I think the splines are off.

Upon closer inspection, I think you're right.

So what do they fit? These are 23 to 26 spline.
