I am changing P/S boxes on my flattie. Can anyone explain the difference between a box with the number 92 on it and one with the number 76 on it?

John this last CJ box I picked up seems to be about 1980.
It’s 4-1/4 lock to lock as normal. It’s got the later “o ring” type hoses yet still has 13/16” input shaft.
