Frame Serial Numbers
Anyone know exactly where the second location of the serial number is on the drivers side frame rail? I was able to find remnants of the first number on the kickup right close to the where the body mount is. Unfortunately I can only make out 6SI of the first number. The stamping must have been very light. I wonder if there is any way to make the stamping reveal itself where I can't see the rest of the numbers.

Thanks John, going to a close look and see if I can spot them.
Six, in the pic below, the forward VIN # is about halfway between the jackstand and the edge of the pic. You can see a darker spot on teh top frame rail which is where I cleaned the numbers off.

Joe,
Could you see your numbers clearly? I can only see remnants on the kickup and none at all on the side frame. Too much corrosion. :(

Clean the surface off with a Scotchbrite pad and a toothbrush, wipe white shoe polish on it, then wipe the surface with a rag; some of the white shoe polish will remain in the stamping and make it easier to see. :thumbs:

This isn't the best pic but I lightened a little right on the numbers (S119761).
