Newbie catalog decoding question

baddog8it
Looking at the wheel information (here), and am seeing some entries with a star in front of them that have a second entry marked with an 'r/b'.

Can someone clue me in?

Gary can correct me if I'm wrong here, but I thought that the star indicated an older/previous part number, and the "r/b" is short for "replaced by".

Again, this is just what I took it to mean.

In the words of Homer - "Doh"!

Seems so obvious now.

The "U" instead of the "T" . .just means it is a wheel from the van engineering group.

The star means Obsoleted, r/b = Replaced By
