reb87 is an unknown quantity at this point
Default vin 5ton 818

Ok I hate to bring this up but I have searched the topics and cannot find exactly where the vin would be stamped on my 818 frame. The plate has been changed and has the vin scratched in and I know that the police will want to check it with the stamped number on the frame. I have removed some of the paint on the left (drivers) side frame rail but havent found a number yet. Can somebody tell me where it should be?

The nsn on the gl paper stuck to the bumper is2320000508978. Also the number scratched in the plate is 05A-1190 C124-10028 the fed stock number on the plate is 2320 050 8978. There arent any other spaces filled in on the plate. I just picked up the truck last week from ft carson co, the gl auction was in may. I need the date and make for the sf97.
Thanks for the help

Default RE: vin 5ton 818

OK I found the number between two bolts in the frame right above the rubber axle snubber. The frame number matches except the last digit looks like a 3 instead of the eight on my plate. I dont think it is a light punch the three is prefectly formed. The number should be C124-10023. Should I use the frame number or the plate number?

The frame # IS the legal number. Use it.

Get the registration number from the VIN thread on this website so you have the correct registration number and other info for your data plate. That doesn't matter as much as the correct VIN but for "completeness sake".

Here's a link to the thread and I'll get the info for you.
