So, I got a new data plate set. I put it all together, headed over to the Jeep shop to work on my vehicle, and noticed that the old, heavily tarnished data plate set has the plates in a different arrangement than Pete Debella (who I used as reference). What is the difference, and does anyone know the correct one?

This is the correct arrangement.



It's easy to see what happened. DeBella's right hand man riveted the data plates to the back side of the mounting plate. Good thing you didn't order a set of installed plates in an early M38!!! Wink
