I've got 98% of my sheet decoded but these have me stumped.

708 Engine
211-211 Rear Springs L/R
42 Clutch & Brake Bracket
22 Front Brake
36X Steering Column
12X Steering Wheel & Horn Ring


Thanks in advance!

708 - the engine assembly code for a '68 B body 384-4 330 horse with automatic transmission and no A/C.
211- last three digits of the rear leaf spring part number. 2585211(?) I 'm not sure as the PN was superseded
42 - the brake pedal assembly number. Assembly number contingent on body, single pedal or dual pedal (Clutch), possibly pedal trim rings, PDB vs manual, etc.
22 - the brakes were installed as an assembly. This assembly number would be contingent on brake size, disc, drum, etc.
36X- the steering column was an assembly. The number is contingent on things like body, with or without auto pilot (cruise control) tilt/telescopic, etc. The X indicates it was painted black in color to match an interior color.
12x - the steering wheel was an assembly. The X indicates black horn pad to match interior.

A lot of these codes can be reverse engineered by knowing what is/was on the car i.e. brake assembly. If you know your car had FPDB, you can surmise the brake assembly number then confirm that with other sheets. If it has the standard steering wheel with black pad, then you can surmise that is the code.
 
Thanks guys! I really appreciate your expertise & help!
