Rear axle code?

I went to pick up my donor crossmember from a guy today and mentioned it was going in a 62 GMC and he asked if I had a rearend for it yet. I said no because its got kind of an obsolete Eaton rearend so I was looking. He said I have a coil spring 12 bolt out of a 65, we looked at it and he gave me a good price so I loaded it up too...Great day!

On to the question, I cleaned the axle tube a little and found the stamping HA 315 W, which according to the ID chart http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=327764 is a 3:73, but in parenthesis it says (exc. positraction). The drums are frozen so I cant spin it yet, but does this mean it could be posi with this code, and therefore a different gear? It seems to me if it was posi it would have a different code stamped. If this is the case what does the exception mean?

Anybody have some insight?
Thanks,
Jeremy
