#2 is a SunTour cassette. It cannot be made to fit your hub.

FWIW: The majority of the changeover from freewheel to cassette hubs happened in the 1980's. Shimano cassette hubs appeared in 1982-ish (1982 Shimano Dealer catalog: https://www.sheldonbrown.com/shimano1982/) and took off with the mountain bike revolution. By 1990 most bikes had cassette hubs. I spent that decade working in shops and the bicycle business and watched it happen.
Thanks!
