John Deere 55 vs 66 plow id

I got a free plow last year and now it's time to pull it out and get it functional. My amateur eyes can't figure out the defining features. I think it's a 55 because the space between the frame is 12" and I saw one page suggest they didn't make a 12" bottom 66. Is that correct? What are the other differences or drawbacks of the 55?
 
I believe the major difference that you can easily see is that the 66 plow has an 18" land wheel. The 55 has only
a 15" land wheel. I have a 4-bottom 14" 66 plow and a 3-bottom 14" 55 plow. I think the 66 was only made
in 4-bottom or greater. The 1st attached picture is my 4-bottom 66 and the 2nd my 3 bottom 55. Hope this helps.
