VEHICLE DATA
Identification and Labels
It is extremely important that the correct vehicle model and serial
number are given whenever replacement parts or service literature are
ordered. Using these numbers, as well as giving the major component
model and serial numbers, will prevent delay and errors in obtaining
the correct material. Space is given on the rear inside cover of this
manual for noting the main component model and serial numbers.
The full 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) is shown on the
Vehicle Identification label located in the door opening on the driver's
side. Vehicles for export, excluding Canadian vehicles, have the full
17-digit VIN on the frame.
The 8-digit chassis number is embossed into the bottom flange
right-hand side of the frame rail and the top flange left-hand side of the
frame rail, 1065 mm (42 inches) back from the front edge of the frame
rail. The use of this number is very helpful when ordering parts for your
vehicle.
