Maybe this helps?

info from a NCRS restorer magazine Spring 2013 about jacks.

1972:
date code on side rail
A on top (Ausco)
9"x5" base plate
2 base plate holes
Top plate 5 1/2"x 2 1/8"
has a top plate hole

vs 1976
date stamp on rivet (year & week).
SMP stamped on bottom (Seeburn Metal Products)
9" x 4 3/4" base plate
no base plate hole
top plate 5 1/2" x 1 3/8"
no top plate hole
